George is survived by his wife, Barbara; his children Marcia Schiavo, Jim (Shannon), and Cindy Kafantaris (Marios); and his grandchildren Chris (Claire) and James Kafantaris, and Jaime and Katie Schiavo.
A memorial service to celebrate his life will be held on Sunday, September 28 at 5 PM at The Church in Brielle, Riverview Drive, Brielle. In lieu of flowers, George requested that donations be made to Manasquan First Aid Squad or to The Church in Brielle Memorial Fund.
