I worked with George for many years at Whirlpool . The only problem I had with George was he was a Michigan fan. Rest in peace my friend.

I remember when George’s home on Oaklawn caught on fire and his son George Jr. saved him from burning to death

George was my neighbor for 36 years & I was his “grounds keeper” for the past 20 years. I remember him as a hard worker that did more things in a wheelchair than most able bodied people could do. He was a devoted husband and wanted nothing but the best for Vicki. You’re an inspiration and a damn good man George and I’m proud to have known you. Rest in peace my friend.
