I'm not a Veteran nor did I know George.   I believe no individual who served their country should be laid to rest without respect and honor.  George, thank you for your service.  I will be there to pay my respects and honor your life and service.

My dad was a captain in Vietnam & buried there too. We will be there to honor you sir. Thank you for your service and sacrifice. 

George was a nice man.  I'd see him riding his bike around town and often run into him at the library. I remember one time he was contacted by someone in Africa (unsolicited email) he said the guy was a lawyer and had money for George but he had to send him money in order to process the funds.  I tried to tell him it was a scam but he didn't want to listen to me. during that same conversation I told George he would be better off getting a used car and moving to the streets of any town in Florida. It was dead middle of winter, freezing cold and I knew he was living under the bridge.  he looked at me and with an exasperated sigh said "no way man,  too many people trying to RIP you off with used cars!".... Haha... this AS he is typing an email to his African "lawyer " about more money he is getting ready to send.  RIP George, God bless your memory and thank you for your service. 

Thank you for your service Mr. Babcock. My father is buried in Lincoln National Cemetery and I'm sure he will be there to help a fellow Army vet find his way to heaven.  

Thank You Sir for your selfless service to this country and all of our freedom.  May you Rest In Glorious Peace Sir 🇺🇸 🙏

Though I never knew you, I’d like to thank you for your service...Rest in Peace Sir.

Thank you for your service and we will be honored to be there for you George .
Rest In Peace Brother

Thank you for your service! I will be there to honor this hero. 🇺🇸

The word is getting out. It will be an honor for me to attend his services. I thank him for his service and may he rest in peace.

I’m an Air Force Veteran. I will be there. 

George was a frequent visitor to the downtown Joliet Public library computer lab.  Despite his poor health, he was often seen riding around on his bike in all kinds of weather. He was an opinionated curmudgeon and we will miss him.

Although our paths never crossed during your lifetime dear Sir I’m saddened but also honored now to know of your passing. Thank you for serving your country and your fellow countrymen. 
I hope your life held many blessings through the years and now rest well in Gods memory and in the palm of his hands. ❤️

RIP to a man who gave so much for our country. It takes a selfless individual to fight for our liberties and freedoms. You are not alone!! The USA is your family & we love you. To the moon and back thank you George!! Thank you. Sincerely, Officer Guerrero 💙

In his life, he gave service to his country...in his passing, may we honor him with our gratitude.

I did not know George but I would like to thank him for his years in the service.  I appreciate his hard work to keep our country safe and free.
May his memory be eternal.
