Hello George,

I remember our laughs, conversations, and shoulder shrugs every time you came in. 

I always told Bevin hello for you. 

I was happy to get to meet your daughter that day you brought her in.

We were never going to accept anything from you. We were looking forward to cleaning your garage and if still needed, we are still willing. Time with people has no price.

And last, that laugh we had at the bar when I told you ,"I'm faster than you". Your response still makes me smile to this day.

We love and miss you dearly but look forward to seeing you in the next life. Your will always be here for you.

We got to enjoy dinner with George on many occasions.   After struggling with breast cancer, Friday nights were mine and my husbands chance to kick back and relax. We would go to Ruby Tuesday’s and enjoy the good food and atmosphere in these difficult times. We would always sit with George and he would always hug me big and tell me how happy he was that I was doing so well. Keith and I will miss him on Friday nights as much as the Ruby’s crew. We all loved him very much. Thank you George for being so amazing. We love you. Love Keith and Michele Lee

I just recently got to know George these past couple of weeks. I work at Ruby’s and I looked forward to seeing him walk in. I just started bartending and I was excited to have my first guest that I could have their drink ready for them after seeing there truck pull in. He was so easy to talk to and made me feel comfortable as a server switching to bartending. I asked him last week if he was judging me on the way I made drinks and he said “you’re the professional that’s why I’m on this side of the bar.” He always ordered a ginger ale and citron. Funny thing is last time he was at ruby’s I told him we were out of ginger ale and he had to choke down sprite instead. The very next morning I found a whole case of ginger ale behind the bar. It was definitely a laughable moment. George was loved by everyone he met. And he will be missed. 

I first met George at Ruby Tuesday. At first we never really talked just kinda chimed into each other’s conversations once in awhile till one day I was sitting at the bar and he came in and sat in the seat next to me and we hit it off since. He was a great guy, full of knowledge and definitely wasn’t afraid to say what was on his mind which is my favorite thing about him. The last time I saw George was at Ruby’s on a Sunday and he came in and told the bar tender to put my drinks on his tab and I said well thanks George he’s like ahh it’s no problem. I said next time I got yours. And it’s sad to say there won’t be a next one but as I’m sitting here I’m having a drink for him. He will definitely be missed. 

My favorite memories of George were sitting with him at Ruby Tuesday’s and talking to him about life. He always gave me so much advice and gave the best hugs. Always happy go lucky and always smiling. I will miss him so much. He made coming to work so enjoyable.
