He held his wife Claire close to his heart, we often spoke of our spouses after mine passed. George was a partner when he worked for me on the RR and then when I worked for him in management.

Dear Hurchick Family,You are all in my prayers and thoughts. I fondly remember all my train rides with George and Kevin on the 6:20 AM Amtrak from Trenton to New York Penn Station. The coffee and conversation with George made the many years of commuting worth the trip! I know George will be watching over all of us! Joe Tantum

George was a trusted co-worker and more importantly a friend. When he was not talking about his family and how fortunate he was to marry his childhood sweetheart, he would discuss how the "carrier" should do something better. I will miss him and the lunches we shared that Clair had made.
