The only thing I can say is that he was a wonderful husband to his wife and a wonderful father to his daughters and son. He was an amazing friend. I will always miss him.

I only knew George for 3 year but from everything I knew about him, the one thing I remember the most is his honesty and sincerity. He was easy to talk to. I enjoyed visiting and listening to him talk about his life and all of the different things he was interested in. From Airplane chairs, to being a disc jockey (nothing was off the table) very open, great guy. He treated me like family even though I wasn't. A great heart and a good friend, he is missed. May god bless him and his family. He leaves behind 2 fantastic daughters which I know he would be proud of.

I went to U of M with George in the mid 60's where he and I became good friends in RTV program. Many great memories,he even came to Canada for my wedding Dec,7 1968 in Toronto. However we lost touch after a few years. To his surviving family my most sincere sympathies.

there was no other like my father,he had a sense of humor that i much appreciated,its seems theres never enough time to really be with the ones we love,i even get rapped up in my own shit,but my father had much grace and humility.He tought me more than he thought,he really was a smart guy and always enjoyed conversations with him,I will always love him and remember his classic attributes,,,,,,LOVE GEORGE THE THIRD

My Brother-in-law and friend for life. There was no other like George. What brother-in-law in this world would ever still invite his sister-in-law every year to come down to Ft. Lauderdale for every holiday and was totally disappointed if we couldn't make it and this was on going even after my sister, Marijane, his wife died in 1998. He invited us all the time. He wanted his children to still have a relationship with thier auntie. He was always a worker. He carried a load of responsibility for his entire family and not just his own little private family unit, but also carried the load for his father, mother, 2 brothers, and handicapped sister and he never talked about it. He just kept pushing the piano up the hill until his health failed him in the last 2 yrs of his life. He had a wonderful marriage relationship with his wife, my sister, Marijane, who had movie star looks without even trying and she was crazy about him. She would always say, " I have to ask my husband" as if I didn't know who her husband was. I never thought that way about my x-husband. He always gave her the freedom to do whatever she wanted to do without sounding off about when are you getting back and why are you doing that. George had total respect for each and every person with whom he came in contact. He gave up his very sucessful career in radio broadcasting to run his father's hotel/motel businesses, because he had a true sense of duty and responsiblity to family. He had an incredible voice and was always up on all the local and US politics. Truly and incredible man on all counts and a wonderful husband, father, uncle, and brother-in-law. I will go now and morn for my good friend and will never forget the good times. I was there for most of them with him and Marijane, and his children, Lil Geo, Tiff, and Melanie Rose. He was my daughter Jacklyn Rose's godfather. We will speak of you often, me and the kids, and we will never let our memories of you fade. Your sister-in-law,Lovingly, Chalotte (Anzalone) Boyland

George was my brother Larry's best friend through grade school and high school. I loved him like a brother. I thought he was a wonderful guy, with a tremendous sense of humor. He was a deep thinker although he would never let on because his sense of humor was his most obvious trait. I will always remember that when my father died (Iwas 13 years old) that George, out of respect, wore a black tie for an entire month. He was a doll!George, I know you are up in heaven with all the angels and someday I will see you again. I hope you now know that I love you and that I have always loved you.Be at peace, Georgie Porgie.Love,Leslie

I met George more than 30 years ago when I became the Executive Director of the Broward County Hotel and Motel Association. George served on the Board and later became President of the Association. He was one of my main references for jobs through the years, but we probably would have kept in touch anyway. We sometimes crossed paths in the future at charity and civic events; I tried to stop by and say hello every now and then and get caught up. Realizing it's been a couple years now. I'm sure everyone who worked with him, knew him, or came in contact with him was aware of his love of Fort Lauderdale, his civic pride, and his passion for politics and trying to "make things better". George was a genuinely "nice guy". Our community will be much less for his passing. My sincere condolences and sympathy to his family and loved ones.

I will always remember Uncle George cooking barbecue for us on his grill and making bloody marys and watching fox news with the door open while we we were all on the patio, talking about life back up in Massachusetts!
