King was a dear friend many years ago when I live in Burlington. We were performers with the Lyric Theatre and had fun hiking and biking.
We lost touch, but I very sad to hear of his passing. Rest in peace my friend.

Dear Kathy,
I'm so sorry to hear of my Classmate King's passing. We spoke this winter on the phone and he came to a luncheon last summer for our Class of 1962. We are all so overcome with loss hear about him. He always amazed us with his athletic skills and never still when we met. Loved his jokes and stories. It is a sad time for our Class. Deepest Sympathy, Caroline George Martel

George evidently lived a very full and active life. I recall him being a good drummer in a band with another classmate ('67), Lester Figarsky.
