George Vernon Brundage

Born and raised in Charlotte, Michigan, George's early years were filled with adventure and hard work. He earned his pilot's license as a young man and spent time crop dusting.

Eventually, George settled in Lansing, where he planted deeper roots to raise a family. On August 8, 1959, he married the love of his life, Betty Jean. They welcomed four children into their lives, and George took immense pride in watching them grow.

He dedicated 32 years of service to General Motors. Outside of work, George lived for the outdoors and hands-on hobbies. He was happiest camping under the stars, fishing by the lake, or cruising in a boat. He was an avid golfer and bowler and could often be found in his workshop, where he crafted wood with care and precision.

A life lived with purpose and a man loved by many — George Brundage will be deeply missed.

George is survived by his children: Jerry (Deb) Brundage, Ronald (Sandy Guthrie) Brundage, Donald (Connie) Brundage and Kathy Brundage; grandchildren: Brittany Brundage, Taylor (Laura) Brundage, Ryan (Marceedes) Brundage, Dylan (Emily) Brundage, Analynn Brundage and Ying Brundage; great grandchildren: Grayson, Finley, Owen, Alaina and Ellyana; brother Bruce Brundage; and many nephews and cousins.

He was preceded in death by his parents; beloved wife Betty Jean Brundage; brother Ray Brundage; and sisters-in-law: Rosie Brundage and Alice Brundage.
