Our family lived very close when I was growing up(all next door neighbors on one farm) this made “Uncle George” more like another dad to me. I’m the man I am today because of George. I have so many memories of him in my life that without writing a book it’s hard decide on one to tell. This is both my favorite memory of him and my wedding. In 2009 my wife and I had our wedding at the family farm (for context my grandmother and grandfather had died a few years apart and had lived on the property as had my aunt Nancy some years prior, also my neighbor), George came to me after the ceremony and congratulated me, and with slight mist in his eyes thanked me for having such a joyful event there as we needed it after all the loss. That wedding was perfect, George and the family landscaped three yards, countless flower beds, hours on the tractor, all to make my wife and I’s day perfect, and he did! We still look back on that day like a dream , and he thanked me for bringing that to the farm! Such an amazing, humble man. He always made everyone feel welcome and comfortable, thank you Uncle George, Shonda and I love and miss you

We were so sorry to read about George’s passing. We knew George from school. Tom played baseball with George. Tom’s parents were very good friends with the Yops.
George was such a friendly guy.
