George Henry Zibelin

loving wife, Margaret, beside him.

George was born on May 22, 1931, to his father, George, and his mother, Alice. George created

a lifetime of memories as a husband, father, grandfather, friend, and mentor.

At a young age, George served in the United States Navy and later retired with the United States

Air Force.

In 1986, George married the love of his life, Margaret. With this marriage he gained three kids,

Todd, Michelle, and Denise. As years passed, George had 6 grandchildren: Stephen, Jordan,

Stephanie, Joshua, Sophia, and Jasmine.

During George’s life, he was passionate about cooking (pot roast, BBQ chicken, homemade

french fries, mushrooms, BBQ ribs, and schnitzel), loved sailing with Margaret, working on his

cars, reading his bible with his family, camping, fishing, hunting, attending church on

Wednesday nights, and loved challenging himself to do new things.

George Henry Zibelin will always be remembered for his strength, encouragement to his

grandchildren, thoughtfulness, ethics, the history stories he would tell, and most of all his love.

George continuously reminded people, “God be with you, always!”
