I was so happy to see George in March. Many wonderful memories of times at FHS. George's smile would light up a room the moment he walked in. He had the most optimistic personality and it showed. Just a super sweet man with a wonderful family. George and Alice made the perfect couple. Sending prayers to your family.

George, was a very special man. He had not only a vast knowledge of his subject matter but the ability to share it with his students in a unique and kindly manner. He was respected by all his peers both vocation and academic. He truly will be missed.
