Our deepest condolences to the family of Mr. George Weixler. 
All the volunteers at the Naval Air Station Fort Lauderdale Museum were very fond of him. George donated several personal items to the Museum which are on display. They will be a reminder to all of us of this lovely and generous man. He will always be remembered.

George was always had a good sense of humor, was cheerful and engaged in interesting conversations. He will be missed.

So sad to hear of George's passing.  I have great memories of fascinating conversations with him.

George was a good soul.  His smile, jokes and stories were always wonderful gifts.  We hope that we can have his great spirit and love for cheesecake for breakfast in our golden years.  We will miss you, Joel and Sheryl

Dad- thanks for all the life lessons you taught me. You will always be with me. Say Hi to mom for me. Love you!!!

George Fredrick Weixler, 90, made a peaceful exit from planet earth on Friday morning, September 18, 2015. His trip into eternity began from his home in Fort Lauderdale. Unafraid of death, due to a strong faith, he is happily reunited with his precious wife of 61 years, Muriel. George was born on February 8, 1925 in Brooklyn, NY. He grew up there and helped in his family's thermometer business. He was a very fast runner and played semi-pro football. He remained an avid fan of many sports his entire life. George learned to be Semper Fi by joining the Marines at the age of 17 to fight in WWII, and lived a life based on honor, charity and integrity. He was well admired and loved by his three children, eight grandchildren, and five great grandchildren. He will be sorely missed by all - a man with a passion for justice, a great sense of humor, and a very generous heart, always willing to give to family in need and to numerous charities. His mind remained sharp until the very end and his memory was astounding, often more precise than the memories of his much younger progeny! His greatest concern and matter of prayer was the welfare of his extended family and his greatest joy was to hear reports of their prosperity. Having a unique personality (ie being a real character!) caused him to be an extremely popular and favored member of the clan. Everywhere he went he engaged with people making them laugh, smile, and feel good. A recent quote by George describes his legacy, I'm good with everyone. This is confirmed by a quote by his youngest great grandchild, 2 year old Ella, who got to visit him from Pennsylvania in August 2015. Upon returning home, she told her mom, I miss my new friend, Great PopPop.
 
A memorial service for George will held at Kraeer-Fairchild Funeral Home at 10:00 AM on Tuesday, September 22, 2015. The address is 4061 N. Federal Hwy., Ft. Lauderdale. All who knew George are invited to attend.

One of my favorite stories is when dad, the ever dutiful husband, went to the grocery store for mom. One of the items on the list she gave him read "bogo ice-cream." In his classic humorous way, he tells of how he had 1/2 the store scurring around trying to help him find "bogo ice-cream." He convinced everyone to help him because he couldn't go home until he everything on the list. Or else! Finally, someone figured out that the ice cream was the one onsale, BOGO - Buy One Get One Free.

Your Legacy, Wisdom, and Blood will carry on through all of us. I love you Poppop.

Sad to say goodbye to this sweet soul. I will miss you popop. My heart is full of so many memories of your love, and silliness, and passion for justice. Love you popop.

You will always be in our hearts.  We will miss your jokes and mischievous smile.  Your deep care and love for the people in your life. Your passion and integrity.  You were a wonderful poppop and great popop. We love you.

George may be gone, but as a true "Beyonder" he will never be forgotten.  We love you, Dad
