George and I were friends in high school, we enjoyed Boy Scouts together and graduated in 1972. His parents allowed me to accompany George at concerts and a UT game. He will be missed.

I remember George from jr. high and high school. He was one of the nicest people I'd ever met. He was immensely popular, yet never behaved in the stuck-up way that a lot of the other popular kids did. He was kind to everyone, no matter who they were. More specifically, he was kind to me, and *that* is why I remember him. You never forget the kind people in your life, no matter how many years have passed. He loved spreading laughter. I'm really saddened by his death.

I first met George in the first grade. We were in many classes together all thru our high school years. He was loved and respected by all. In past years I was able to meet George for lunch a couple of times. Once in San Antonio and another time with a small group from our Alvin High School class. He also joined in on one our class zoom meetings. Losing a dear friend -it´s like losing part of yourself. May God give comfort to all those that loved George.
