I would like to extend my condolences to your family on your loss. I worked with George in the B-301 Maintenance shop at Kodak for many years. He was a pleasure to work with and always helped me even though I was a very young Pipefitter and he was a Senior Electrician. I have never forgotten his sense of humor and laugh. Your family is in my Thoughts and Prayers.

I worked with George for seven years at Kodak. He was a good electrician and always shared his knowledge with the young apprentices. He was also showed us the lighter side of working during stressful situations and projects. I have many fond memories of George and will cherish them forever.
