Some people come into your life and truly make it better. That was George. I can't help but smile through these tears as I remember only good times that we shared. His light was so bright. I know it will continue to shine through all of the people that he touched...including myself.
My deepest sympathy to the Wilson Family. One can see that he loved and was loved in return.

To George's Family,
I am so saddened by this news. I did not know George personally, but through many conversations with Nancy, I feel that I got to know a little about him, and about how very much he was loved.
I pray that he is at peace, free of all pain and suffering.
Please know that all of your family is in the thoughts and prayers of all of mine.

To George's family
I was very sad to hear of George's illness through Laurie and now that he has passed, I was deeply saddened as were my children who knew him, enjoyed his company and felt he was a super guy. May he rest peacefully and may it be a comfort to the entire family to know he was loved and cared for by so many people.

My uncle was the most wonderful person I've ever met. As much as I was prepared for the loss of the "sick" Uncle George, I'll never get over the loss of the "my" Uncle George. We were all lucky to have him for as long as we did. I am a better person for having known and loved him.

To George's friends and family,
I am so sorry to hear of George's passing. I know you will find some sense of peace for him after such a battle. George was a huge part of my life in the High school/college years. He was such a true friend and caring person with the perfect timing to make me laugh. I often walked to his home from mine just to say "Hi" .We laughed a lot. I'll miss him and will continue to think of him and his smile. With sympathy,

Heartbreaking. I shared lots of laughs and smart conversations with George and his posse. I am glad I have those memories. Seems like a long ago but just yesterday. May he rest in peace and may your whole family take solace in these many messages that affirm how much he was loved by others.

I am deeply saddened by George's passing. I remember fondly George's sense of humor, intelligence and character. We were friends so long ago, but when we were our little group was inseparable. I enjoyed very much that time spent with him. You couldn't help but feel that you were a better person having known George. He had that way about him. I am heartly sorry for his entire family. The Wilsons are a loving, close family and that must have given George great comfort. He was a really wonderful person who will be dearly, dearly missed. My thoughts and prayers are with all of you, family and friends.

We try so hard in life to be the perfect person, but for you George it seemed so easy, your smile, your intelligence, and charisma, so easy...maturity beyond your age, offering so much to so many. I for one, like many of us did not appreciate or understand your knack for understanding what it meant to be alive, a branch filled with the morning dew striking your face as you raced through the reservoir on your mountain bike, or catching wind at a hundred miles an hour in a German machine...perhaps you have seen more than we can ever imagine..I've been blessed to have known you, and a richer person for it. You are in my thoughts and prayers...

To the family of George Wilson,
My heartfelt sympathy in your time of loss. I did not know George. I know of him through his sister Laurie-whom I met recently through her friend Denise Desmaris. May it bring you comfort to know that so many are with you in thought and prayer. I am holding you close in my heart.

I remember George from high school. We both graduated in 1983 and he was always so nice to me. I remember he always said hello. I just pulled out my yearbook and remembered all the wonderful things George accomplished in high school and am so sad that he has passed away.

To George's Family and Friends,
My heart sank as I learned of George's passing. I know him well as "Uncle George" and refer to him often as such as I fondly remember going to Mary Schwartz's birthday parties and celebrating with him there. Mary, a friend of my daughter Rose, would always be treated royally by "Uncle George" with love, attention and beautiful gifts. George would join in the 2,3, or 4 year-old fun by receiving a gift bag filled with little toys and candies like all the other kids who attended. He was the only adult that participated in such an honor.
I also remember learning that "Uncle George" was diagnosed with brain cancer. I really never knew what to do with this. I, also, have battled cancer, appendix cancer and knew all too well the horror of the treatments and the pain, worry and sadness it brought to my family. The whole experience was and still provokes much anxiety and lingers as a horrendous, bad dream. Having learned of "Uncle George's" diagnosis and knowing that while my own cancer had a very high survival rate, George's had a very low survival rate, I had some great sense of what was ahead for him. There is great pain in having had to stand by and watch this happen to such a young, loved, intelligent, warm person.
We now suffer a great loss in "Uncle George's" passing. He is such a hero to have fought this battle. We cling to each other in
remorse and wonder why such a "kid," as my husband refers to him, had such a short life. Laurie, my beautiful friend, I can not even imagine how much pain you are feeling.
I look to heaven and am glad only for the fact that George does not have to live through any more medical procedures and the after effects of treatments.
I am saddened beyond words.

George was an extraordinary friend and man. He will be missed everyday. We will celebrate his life, and feel blessed to have been a part of it.

To All George's Family,
Even though I never had a chance to meet you I always heard wonderful things about you. I learned that you were a computer genius if anyone had a question they would call you, you were a loving Uncle to so many nieces and nephews who in return adored you so.
Most of all you had three wonderful sisters who loved you dearly and you loved them just as much.
You loved life, you accomplished so much and fought so hard and through it all you were always surrounded by loved ones who will greatly miss you, but I know everytime they think of you cruising in your porsche, or turning on their computers, they will have a little saddness, then a smile and then a twinkle in their eyes as you are one special guy to each and everyone of them.
Fondly,
Denise Foster

Though it pains me deeply that I will never be able to see my Uncle George's face again, or make another memory with him, I am at peace knowing he is in a better place. I can picture him now enjoying a joy ride in his beloved Porsche Boxter S! My deepest condolences go out to all of George's friends who are suffering his loss, too. I pray for all those who must deal with this same disease that cruelly took my Uncle's life.

Dear Uncle George,
I love you very much, and I already miss you a lot. You were always there to help us, especially when our computers stopped working! I will always remember your intelligence and how you made each of us feel special. I love you and though I'm glad you're not suffering anymore, I'm sad to lose you and I will always keep you in my heart.
I love you,
Your nephew, Matthew

To all of George's loving family -
You all have been so caring and loving to George for these past sixteen hard months. I know he has been appreciative of your love. We will miss him as a dear friend and neighbor--it is so hard to realize he's gone but what a gentle man who was such fun to be with. Our lives have been blessed by knowing and loving him. Our little neighborhood will not ever be the same and we will carry our fond memories of a great Guy. Rest in Peace, My George.
