George was a gentle and loving husband, father, grandfather, great-grandfather and friend.
Spending time with family and friends was George's priority. He was a gentle soul with a heart of gold. He and Arlene spent winters in Myrtle Beach; golfing as much as possible and getting together with their "snow bird" friends. He will be sadly missed by all who loved him dearly.
