George served his country valiantly in the United States Army and upon honorable discharge, graduated in 1980 from Southern Illinois University with a Bachelor’s Degree in Economics. He worked for the United States Department of Agriculture as a Loan Processor.

George met his loving wife, Pat in the most adorable way by asking her if she needed an umbrella on a rainy day while riding the metro link.

He was always someone who made a friend everywhere he went. He spent his days enjoying treasure hunting at local thrift stores and reading anything he could find.

He enjoyed a good baseball game, spent his days playing golf and watching old movies, especially westerns.
