George was special! We talked frequently and were always impressed with his good nature. We never heard him complain about anything. Nick enjoyed talking with him about sports events on television. His phone calls will be missed. We know that he is resting peacefully.

George was a fixture at TJ and a friend to anyone who met him. He met us all with a smile and was the biggest Viking fan there ever was.

George, thanks for being a ray of light to all of us at Tee Jay. You will be deeply missed and fondly remembered.
