I worked with George at Williams Communications in the late 1990's. George's greatest gift was his ability to make people laugh. May the Lord bless his family during this difficult time of loss.

My heartfelt condolences.  George was such a nice man - I will miss seeing his smiling face around the courthouse.

To Pete, Nina, Becca, Sarah, and Pam: I was lucky to have known George in the brief moments we had together at Pete and Nina's wedding, as well as from visits to Pete and Nina's home. He was a great guy with a huge amount of love for everyone he knew. He will be greatly missed, and my loving thoughts will be with Rapp and Belcastro families, as well as all those who knew George. May he rest in peace with God.

Nina, our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.  May your father be with you always and be Noah's guardian angel.  We love you sweetheart and please give our love to your Mother and family!
God Bless..
Lori, Aunt Rena and your Arizona family

Mrs. Rapp, Nina, Sarah, and Becca..
Not only I, but Katy, my mom and dad were in such shock when we heard this news that we didn't no whether to cry, or sit there and live in all of the memories. Katy and I spent the night sitting on the couch with my mom and dad talking about all of the times of all of us up at West View Dance, me or Katy sleeping over your house, or just hanging out, sports, etc. We have so many great memories of your husband and father, and still, it's a hard pill to swallow with what has happened. All we can do is hold onto all of the memories and pictures that we have of him, and know that he wil always be in our hearts. I can't express how terribly sorry I am for all of you guys, just know that me and my family are just either a phone call away or just a few houses down the street. We love you Mr. Rapp, and will never forget you!

My dad was an amazing man.  Everything he did, he did with all his heart.  I wanted so badly for Noah to have such wonderful times with him. Nothing will be the same without him.  Thank you to all of those who have shown their love for this great man in these past few days.  He loved all of you dearly.  I could not ask for a better father, confidant,or friend.  I love you and I'll be seeing you.

G man, we are ALL going to miss you until we see you again when our jobs are done on this Earth. Thanks for the special memories and may God bless you and your family.

I am shocked and saddened to hear of George's passing.  I already miss seeing him in the cafeteria every morning.  I could always count on him to make me laugh.  May God bless you and your family in this time of sorrow.

I'm so glad that I had the honor of having such an awesome guy for an uncle.  The thing that I am going ot miss most about Uncle George is that he always gave the best hugs!  I will always remember the vacation that we all took together in Chincoteague.  I know that my mom has greeted him in heaven.  I'm sorry that my kids won't have the pleasure of growning up knowing their Great Uncle George.  Aunt Pam, Nina, Sarah and Becca- I love you all so much even though we don't see eachother often enough.  The Rapp Family will help eachother through this and Uncle George will be watching over us.

Dear Rapp Family, 
I have always loved your family very much and I am so sorry for your loss.  I was shocked to say the least.  I remember Mr. Rapp always cheering us on at basketball and always being so nice and having a great sense of humor, that includes several times I was at the house.  He was always nothing but nice.

Stay Strong, love and prayers- Angela Lutz

Rapp Family,

I was very shocked and saddened to hear about the passing of George.  I got to know him through my bowling league and thought he was one of the nicest people I have ever met--never a dull moment on the lanes when George was there.  He will be missed and please know we have all of you in our thoughts and prayers.

Pam, Nina, Sarah and Becca,

To George's family, my sincere condolences.  I had the pleasure of working with George and am so very sad at the news of his passing. He was an all around good guy and will be missed.

To George's family,
    You do not know us personally, but we are good friends of the Portman's.  We was very sad to hear about your loss from Gary on Monday.  We have attended the Portmans family picnics at their camp for the past few years.  We always have a good time, but George always made it alot of fun.  My husband always loved to go out up and sing. Even though the picnics will go on, they will never be the same.  George will be sorely missed by everyone. He was a great man.  Please accept our deepest sympathy.

Enduring respect, lots of laughs, joy and trust. These are what make a true friendship. George was my friend, I never had a bad day when George was around....EVER!
Rest in peace my friend and may God bless and guide Pam and the family.  Bob McClain, Ingomar

I was stunned when Angela gave me the news about George.  George was always so intense at Becca’s basketball games.  He would be in the stands trying to help with every rebound and shot.  George was a man’s, man, you have my deepest sympathy.

I'm so sorry for the loss of George. No words could describe what he meant to all of us. I'm especially sorry that Noah won't get to know his Pappy George and experience all the plans George had them. How proud he was to have a grandson.

George will never be forgotten and his legacy will live on in Noah. I'll try to fill the grandfather role but it will be difficult without my partner.

Pap-Pap LarryB

I was in shock about the passing of your husband, father. I work for the U.S. District Court and he would come up to the third floor to pick up mail and he would stop and always talk. He  was the most pleasant and up person I know. Always a smile and in a good mood. He will be missed! My thoughts and prayers are with the family.

Carmella Marmo

Dear Pam and Family, I'm sorry we never got the chance to meet you and the girls. We were so proud of Georgie.  I am still in shock.  I pray that you will find strength and peace. We will one day again be all together in the love and grace of God.  Cousin Anna Marie (Rapp) McDowell

We are so sorry for your family's loss.  We will be thinking of you.  Christine and Michael Seymour

I was shocked and saddened by Georges' sudden passing.  He was a great guy and I enjoyed talking to him at work.  He will be missed by many.  I will keep your family in my heart, thoughts and prayers during this difficult time.  God Bless you and Rest in Peace George.

Rapp Family,
I knew George as a neighbor, bowler, poker partner and most importantly as a friend.  My heart goes out to the family and friends.  Keep your memories close and remember the special  moments you've had with George.  I will never forget the energy and enthusiasm he had for life. Best wishes for peace in your hearts.

Dear Pam, Nina, Sarah & Becca.......Oh my gosh!  I was so very sorry to learn of George's passing.  He was such a nice man and I know you will miss him so much.  Please know that you will be in my thoughts and prayers, and you have my deepest sympathy.
