George worked as a key part of our construction inspection team at Memphis International after his FAA retirement. I spent many interesting and happy moments with him out in the field, and learned from him. He was and is one of the "Good Guys".

Dear Shirley, Mike & family,
I really got to know George when I joined the FAA family in 1990. George & the others would drink coffee in my office every morning & it didn't take long to learn how much George loved his family. I know he will be missed by all his family & friends. I am praying that the LORD will comfort you in the days to come.
Your Friend in Christ
