I was sorry to hear of George’s passing. I worked for him for a short while in Cedar Falls. He was a generous guy, who used to rent an RV to me for $50 for a weekend, so I could use it tailgating at the Iowa Hawkeye football games. He was quite an entrepreneur!

George was passionate about our community and I so appreciated his encouragement to our daughter Hannah as she was getting her business, Stella's, up and running next door to Kristi's Pour House in Hart. Thank you George for coming alongside the good things happening in Hart - you will be missed!

Kristi, I am so sorry for your loss. George was always so good to me, but loved to tease me when I was a kid. I have wonderful memories with him, lots of laughter. I will miss my cousin. May God bless you in this time of sorrow.
