I admired and loved this man the first time I met him in the discipleship room. He had a godly prescense, a loving demeanor and he truly cared about everything he said and did. Later on I got to know his heart and his wife's heart at the bookclub meeting after third service every month. Then I got to work with him at the Crusades and there was not a harder workingman, a more concerned man, a more dedicated man, then I have ever worked with before. He was a joy to watch and work with and for ! I miss him dearly but know I will see him again in heaven with the rest of my Harvest friends ! May God richly bless Tina and family and give her peace !

Tina, Mr. and Mrs. Luna, Robert, Linda and family.  I'm so sorry to hear of George's passing and I'm sorry for your loss.  I am glad to know that George is with the Lord, and to read about the impact he's had on so many.  He was a good friend.  And you have been a second family to me.  Thank you so much.  Praying earnestly for you all.

I remember meeting George when he first usher in the balcony with me in 2005, later in the Billy Graham phone center, its not going to be the same without George but he is in a better place, I will miss him very much, he is now waiting for us to be in heaven too!  God Bless You!

I first met George when we both started at the Billy Graham Phone Center around 2004.  He has been a spiritual inspiration and very good friend and car adviser, ever since.  I miss George already, doing Discipleship Follow-Up (Start Team),  Start-To-Follow Classes, as well as BG Phones.   Even more so, I'll miss him at the Harvest Crusades, both in Anaheim and the various other venues where we were serving, checking in counselors.  The adventure I remember most was him driving six of us up to our first ‘away' Harvest Crusade in San Jose.  We just went up there to be of service and it started us serving together regularly at the Crusades. God bless you, George, for the encouragement you gave us all. And may God bless your family: Tina, Nicole, and Georgie.

I will never forget the first time meeting George. My best friend and I had him as out Growth class leader. He always greeted us with a smile and kind words. After graduating from the class we didn't see each other much but when we saw him he was serving the Lord. George is a great man who has finished well. Until we see each other again...

Your sisters in Christ,
Holly and Ginger

Praying for the Luna family.

George was a man of tender love who was passionate about God and about God's people. He had such a smile that with one glance you remember 'God's grace is sufficient in all things.'

George-- when he got to heaven Jesus was there saying well done my good and faithful servant. That is my memory of George-- faithful. I am so sorry for Tina and their kids at this loss. I just want to thank you for sharing his faithfulness and kindness with the rest of us. He is greatly missed.

Dearest Tina and family, our hearts and prayers are with you. Yes George will be greatly missed, his caring heart, his amazing smile, his encouraging words, his Godly wisdom, his faithfulness, and the list could go on and on, but who knew these things better than you and the kids? What a great joy for you who called him "best friend" and "Dad" oh how comforting to know, that we will all see him again one day. May His peace and comfort continue to sustain you and your family.

I first met George when we were classmates in the 6th Grade.  Little did I know that we would have a lifetime friendship.  My condolences go out to his family.

I was blessed to help him begin his volunteer service at Harvest as his growth class leader and he has blessed me through the years in his character, giving nature, and cheerful spirit. He will be missed and yet we know he heard "Well done".

A man of God, who is going to be missed....Who we will see again in Heaven...Going to miss his smile, the smile in his eyes, and the love he had for others
Love and prays for you, Tina, Nicole and George

I will always remember the times I sat in the resource center ( now called the Chapel) and seeing George and his friend Brooke sitting in the back. George always had his Bible with him. Always was reading it.  I can remember being upstairs in the old Billy Graham phone center at Harvest and seeing him sitting in a booth in the word, meditating on it in preparation for receiving salvation calls.  It was an honor to know him as a brother in Christ. 
Here on earth we are sad because  we miss him but one day again we  will be in heaven.  We are at the same time rejoicing because we know he is with Jesus.
To Tina and the kids remember God is good all the time and all the time God is Good. You are always in my prayers. Romans 8:28

We are truly honored to have known George. Even more so a blessing to have been able to serve the Lord in ministry with him and his lovely wife. Our hearts are broken and our prayers go out to Tina, the children and the family. He always had a way of telling jokes and making people laugh. What a faithful servant to the Lord even through his trial. He fought the good the good fight and remained faithful to the end. Till we see each other again in heaven...

I met George and Tina at The Billy Graham Ministry a few years back. The couple were always there for people. I can't hardly believe He went to Heaven already. I loved the way they loved The Lord. I can't see one without the other. I've been praying for Tina. Love you Tina.
In Jesus name,

To Kellie and I, George is better known as beloved George, we had purchased George a gift card and I had wrote something like "to our beloved George." We were very grateful that George had helped us fix our car several times at that time we would not have had a working car if it were not for George's kindness and giving heart that CHRIST gave HIM to bless us tremendously, especially since we had financial problems and he still wouldn't take our gift card which was another blessing to us. We also were in ministry with him and he was a kind face to see. The bible says "and confessed that they were strangers and pilgrims on the earth." Hebrews 11:13 George finished his pilgrimage here on earth and is gone to be with the Lord awaiting our arrival. May the Lord bless and comfort the family and friends of George. 1Thessalonians 4:13-18 But I do not want you to be ignorant, brethren , concerning those who have fallen asleep , lest you sorrow as others who have no hope. For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again even so God will bring with Him those who sleep in Jesus. For this we say to you by the word of the Lord that we who are alive and remain until the coming of the Lord will by no means precede those who are asleep. For the Lord Himself will descend from heaven with a shout with the voice of an archangel and with the trumpet of God. And the dead in Christ will rise first. Then we who are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And thus we shall always be with the Lord. Therefore comfort one another with these words.

Lifting up the entire Luna family during this difficult time. May God comfort and provide for your every need. Pleasure to serve Jesus alongside all the BGEA family.

Dear Tina and Family,
We loved George and his love for people and genuine love to serve The Lord. We are praying for comfort for all of you. Love in Christ, Ray and Tarri Carbajal

To the Luna family.   I am so very sorry for your loss.  I also am a widow, and understand the pain and emptiness you and your children feel.  Know that soon, the memories will be ones of happiness of your life with him.  He will be greatly missed in the Billy Graham Call Center, but, his smile and spirit will remain in all of our hearts.  May God give you and your children great love and help you to be a peace, knowing he is happy again, and in God's house, watching over you and your family. He wants you to be happy, and remember.  He is happy and well again.  You will see him again, when your work and time here on earth is done.  He loves you and always will.  God bless you Luna Family.

How blessed we are to have had George in our lives! Always upbeat and pleasant with an encouraging word for everyone. George-a man of God! We enjoyed ministering along side George at  Billy Graham phone center.

George was such a kind, warm, loving, and most importantly, a God loving & God fearing man. Whenever I saw him, he was always serving the Lord in some capacity and with such joy! George was such a blessing and he holds a special place in my heart. Although he will be missed deeply, his commitment & love for the Lord and His people live on as an example to all! 

Praying for the Lord's presence & comfort as only He can provide to the Luna family.

All of God's richest blessings,

We were truly blessed to have the time we had with him. George is a true inspiration to us. God Bless You Tina. Our prayers & love are with you.

I did not know George, and I know it is my loss.  I know so many people who think the world of George. He must have been a mountain of a man!  I look forward to one day meeting George in Heaven.

When George smiled, it was infectious. Now he'll flash that smile at the Lord and the angel. We'll miss, George. May God comfort you Tina, and family.

I first met George in start to follow a few years ago and although I didnt know him personally, what struck me about him was his joyful and loving attitude. Whenever I would pass by him at Harvest he would always have a smile and a kind word. His joy was to overflowing and it always affected many in positive and Godly ways. He is truly missed and loved by many

George, Thank you for the opportunity to have worked with you at BGEA, What an Honor!!!
My Condolences go to your family.

Thank you George for the Pleasure of working with you at Billy Graham Ministries. You Inspired Us, and your Heart for the Gospel, to reach oters...I say Thank you!!
Earth's Loss, But Heaven's Gain. The Lord Himself Has something so Glorious. We cannot imagine!
My Condolences go to your wife and family..

I only met George once, that was a few weeks before he passed. He told all of us at the Billy Graham Counseling that his cancer came back worse than before. I just saw the love people had for him and his family. It was nice to know George for even if it was for a night.

God bless The Luna Family.

Our dear friend George has been greeted by the Saints and by our dear Lord and Savior Jesus Christ who took him by the hand and presented him to our Heavenly Father and said well done my child.  As a member of the Billy Graham ministry in Riverside we share in that the loss of your loved one.  In Christ name we pray in the Holy Spirit that where there be rejoicing in heaven yet we will dearly missed our dear friend George who was an inspiration to us all.

Hello Tina and family, George was a wonderful example of God's love  and we are thankful that we got to meet him and you at the Harvest Start friends.  He will never be forgotten as a wonderful  mentor of our Lord.  Prayers for the family, Shiela and Chris Rojas, Riverside, CA

Tina,
I have never met you. I know George from the Billy Graham telephone center. I only knew George for a year and a half. He was always kind, helpful and genuine. I'm gonna miss my brother, this gentle giant. I know he is in the presence of our God and Lord. We will see him again on the way up. May The Lord strengthen and keep you and the children.

Although having only recently met George, I was immediately impressed with his sincere personality and pleasant demeanor. I could tell right away he had a strong work ethic and was a wealth of information when it came to his business. Men like him are few and far between and I feel blessed to have known him if only for a few short months. Thoughts and prayers to the family.

Hi Tina, Nic and George,
We are keeping you in prayer and asking our Lord to bring a peace & comfort to all of you. George has a lot friends plus a lot of people will be spending eternity with our Lord because of George's faithfulness in sharing the good news of our Lord Jesus fulfilling our Lords Great Commission to all believers.  
Until we see George & our Lord again, Mike & Delilah Hasten

Tina, Nicki & Matt. Praying for you all still. Thank you for sharing your husband/father with me. He's such an amazing leader, mentor, counselor, friend & encouraging soldier for Christ.  Your family has positively  impacted my life. Tina I pray you all carry on the legacy of your husband.  May our mighty creator keep you all in His care give you peace in your beautiful hearts.

George Luna made a huge impact on my life and I'm so gratefully for him. George loved to serve as he loved the Lord. I pray I can be like George in service and making an impact for Eternity on people's lives.God Bless you and your family Tina.  I know The Lord will take care of you, because his word is true. Psalms: I have been young and now am old and I have not seen the righteous forsaken nor his seed begging bread.

God Bless you and Comfort you.

Love Emily V

George was a very special person who impacted my life, I'm sure as many others in a very special Godly way. George was a model of Christianity and Servanthood, he loved serving as he loved The Lord. I pray I can be like George in regards to service and impacting others for eternity. God Bless you and your family. I know The Lord will take care of his Loved Ones because God's word is true. I have been young and now I am old and I have not seen the righteous forsaken nor his seed begging bread.

George was a GREAT example of showing God's love to everyone.  We see him talking earnestly to people that just made a commitment to Christ at the church, listening to them intently, then sharing, from the word of God, how He can work it for good in their life. At Billy Graham Telephone Ministry, he shared Scripture that the Lord had given him to share.  He was a good and faithful servant who loved the Lord and his family.  We loved him and will miss him,  BUT we look forward to the day when we will see him again!  Ted and Ava Bradach

Tina and family:

My prayers are with you and the kids.  There are no words that can be spoken to ease your pain and bring you comfort.  Having gone through this myself, please remember that God is with you every step of the way.  He promises to never leave you nor forsake you.  Stand on that promise and as you draw close to Him, He will draw you even closer to Himself and provide the comfort you need.  The Lord be with you all.
