I know George will be missed by his family and many friends. I will personally feel a very deep loss, as George had the ability to lift my spirits just by calling me up and chatting for a few minutes. May God rest his soul and may he rest in peace! John Davis

Dear family of George, I'm happy to say that my life was enhanced by knowing him. He made me and others around him smile because of his smile. Affectionately called "Paw-paw", he will forever live in our memories. We celebrate his life as a good Christian man, husband, father, grandfather and all the roles he fulfilled. We'll see you in that "great resurrection." Love, PastahD

I worked under George Pullen during his time with the Financial Management Division of the Atlantic Division Naval Facilities Engineering Command (LANTDIV). You could not find a nicer boss or a nicer person than George. He will be missed by many. You and your family will be in my thoughts and prayers.
