I was a salesman for Pilgrims Chicken, and called on him at Charles Sledd, when he was a buyer there. He was quite a character and I always got a kick out of his quick wit, and unorthodox style. I’ll miss you George. May God Bless you and your family. I just found out of your passing go today, and wanted to leave a little remembrance.

To Barb and Family – How lucky I am to have had a life long friend in George and honored to have him as a Brother Eagle till the end of our times. His memory will shine on brighter than an uncirculated coin and his family reflects the same silver shimmering.
Rest in Peace my Friend and Brother ! David & Lee Ann
