I had the pleasure of knowing George and playing football with him in college for 4 years. He was one of the most passionate and toughest football players that I ever played with or against. His name and person brings back so many memories. He was definitely one of a kind and only wished there were more "George Yanigers" in the world today. Always wishing for continued memories of you George. Blessings, Jerry

we were fortunate to have George and Al and Bob live at my parents home while they played football at Simpson College and I have many great memories of those days. I am sure my Mom and Dad were glad to see George again on August 6th.
