I am very sorry to hear of my friend and classmate's passing, George was a good friend of mine, we went to sutter jr. HI and high school and shared the same love for classic cars. I have many great memories growing up with him as a friend along with Ken Stassi.
GEORGE will be missed by all who knew him, GODS blessings to him and his family.
