Words can't express the way I feel about George and the legacy that he left. A trusted friend and advisor, he was always there to lend a ear or just a hug in a time of need. His bright smile, loving heart and kind spirit will live on in our memories forever.

My deepest regards to the surviving members of his family. I thank you and God for sharing him with us for the time he was here. I'm eternally grateful to have known him.

So sorry to learn of George's passing. Though I haven't seen George in some time, I remember him vividly: his personality made our high school years as entertaining as they were transformative. May his family and friends be comforted in this difficult time by the many happy memories with which he gifted us all. It was an honor and pleasure to have known him. Please know that the Coulter Family and all who miss George are in my thoughts and prayers....

I worked with George at UOP.. sat next to him for over 2 years.. He was a very caring person, and had a huge heart. He always had fun teasing all of us, and giving us nicknames. I would always asked about everyone's lives and gave advice when he could. He never let anyone know about his health issues, and he never complained about anything. It breaks my heart that he is gone. God Speed Georgey! ~~Jeezy...
