George was a very kind man; he told me the most amazing story at the Benson Table about working with my father in the 1960's. He was wickedly intelligent, had a wonderful memory and had that same twinkle in his eye as my father did. Both great men. Prayers for his family.

George was the consummate gentleman. It was my honor to work with him years ago and to be his neighbor the past 31 years. I will miss seeing him and chatting on our dog walks and will forever remember his yellow Camaro. My beloved mom's memorial service is tomorrow as well so I will be unable to attend George's service. Rest assured Dottie that I will stop by next week to chat. Rest well George.

We were always sorry that George never could come to the Arabian Horse Show here in Phoenix, it would have been a great time. Sorry to see his time here on earth is now over! RIP George.

Please accept my condolences. George and my husband, Harvey, may he rest in peace, became great friends at the Benson Table in the Union League. They spent many a lunch, discussing all manner of subjects. When Harvey passed away, George initiated an internship in Harvey's name at the Foreign Policy Research Institute. I, too, thought of George as a friend and true gentleman. May his memory be for a blessing. Barbara
