Dear, Yvette and Isabella 
         My heart goes out to you and your family. I as well as everybody else here at Arroyo are here for you and your family. Personally, this hit really close. George and I lived parallel lives. We both went to Arroyo, worked our first job together (Pace), went to the same university, and worked at the same high school. We pulled up to work at the same time everyday. He with Isabella, Me with my son Jagger. I would go on to have Isabella her senior year and  she was a joy to have in class. She is one of the best students I ever had. I even worked with Yvette at the health and racquet club. I was close friends with Mario Miranda back in the day. So this was such a gut punch to hear about.
       We should celebrate his life because he really made a difference in our community. Today I had a student come up to me and told me George helped him get his first job and that he was grateful for having him in his life. As well as other students telling me similar stories. He will always be a great dad, husband, employee. What else can I say. I will always have great respect for the man that he was. My condolences to all who knew him.

Amigo, I'm so heartbroken I still can't believe you are gone. Your friendship was a gift, and your memory is a treasure. Thank you for every moment, every laugh, and every memory shared; you made worksite extraordinary. I'm going to miss you so much :( and work will never be the same without you here. Love you Friend

I have been so saddened to hear of George's passing.  I met George in the late 80's when his brother, David starting dating my sister, Jennifer.  George was always full of fun and laughs.  I know my sister loved him and Yvette, and the whole Reyes clan very much.  I'm thinking of you all during this painful time.  And I'm praying you begin to feel a sense of comfort that can only come from our Heavenly Father. David and I spoke this week about the peace that comes in knowing we will see them again.  Sending so much love and heartfelt condolences.

Losing George has been heartbreaking. He was a great colleague, friend, and confidant. I appreciated how he could always bring levity to situations with his great wit, charm, and humor. He had a great heart. This was one of the last texts I sent him. I hope he got to read it so he knew how much I respected and cared for him:

“Hey dude. I heard things are tough. I'm thinking of you and the family. I don't really pray but I'm praying for you. I'm no George Reyes but headed to AHS tomorrow to help out a little. We're all thinking of you and hoping for the best. Please let me know if you need anything or if I can help out the family at all. Love ya man. 

No need to reply. Save your strength for the important stuff.”

I will miss George tremendously and work will never be quite the same without him there.

We have know George since he was a kid.   We would often see him playing catch in the driveway with his brothers. One day when he was in his teens, I took him, his sister Isabel and my toddler son to the Santa Anita Race Tracks. I think we betted on all the wrong horses but had fun anyway. I feel like we kind of watched George grow up.  As an adult sometimes he would visit for a bit in the  front yard to chat a few minutes about sport events or family news. George was always friendly and funny. So for us as neighbors, we feel more like family.  We will always cherish our wonderful memories of George and his beautiful smile.
Forever in our hearts- The Sohaili Family

Gracias Dios por los 52 años con mi hijo Jorge.  Tantos alegres recuerdos y anécdotas que siempre  en nuestro  corazón vivirán. Así como esta foto de tus primeros zapatitos que siempre querías que lucieran en su mismo lugar. Recuerdo cuando con tanto entusiasmo tu papá se prevenía con su guacamole, pistachios y demás botanas para ver los partidos de soccer     contigo. Gracias hijo querido como te vamos a extrañar tu esposa, hijas, familia y todos los que te conocieron. Vuela alto y descansa en la presencia de Dios hasta que nos volvamos a reencontrar. Tu mamá

The stars in the heavens are much brighter with you up there. We here, left on earth will always miss you. Like a shooting star, your meteoric impact has paved the path for many generations in our community. Gratefulness has forever imprinted into their DNA and that will forever be passed along to their children, and their children’s children. As for the emptiness you leave behind it cannot be described; it is, however, a reminder of your significance in all our lives. I will miss you brother. I will forever be grateful of presence in my life. See you again one day. Your friend and colleague, Can.

At 5th grade he was already a stud!!!! Love you Brotha!!!

My deepest condolences to the Reyes family.  George will never be forgotten and will be forever in our hearts. He and I worked together in the Pasadena Unified School District. While he was at Muir High School Career Center, he helped so many students reach their goals of going to college. If a student ever doubted their ability or thought they couldn’t go to college, he was quick to encourage and motivate them. He always had a positive attitude and a smile , so students felt comfortable talking with him and seek his guidance.  He was humble and kindhearted. He leaves behind a legacy of success stories of students he helped throughout his career.  The world was a better place with George Reyes in it.

My brother-in-law, Georgie, was one of a kind—his humor, sometimes wildly inappropriate but always unforgettable, lit up any room! All we could do sometimes was just shake our heads and laugh.  Then we'd hear a Reyes yell out, "Don't encourage him!" 

He loved his family fiercely, especially Yvette and his girls.  That love never fades. Rest in peace Georgie. We will honor your memory always.

With Much Love,
Liz

No tengo palabras para esta muy mala noticia!!  Eras muy alegre !! Y buena persona, nos quedamos con esos recuerdos y anécdotas contigo en vida!! A toda mi familia les mandamos un fuerte abrazo y pronta resignación 🙏🙏

La muerte no tiene la última palabra! "Si lla muerte nos entristece, nos alegra la resurrección que tenemos prometida" lo escuchamos en  el prefacio de la misa de difuntos 
En el cap. 19 del Apocalipsis leemos "Dichosos los que han sido invitados a las bodas del Cordero" 
Jorge está engalanado asistiendo a esa boda, dichoso él!
Abrazo fuerte querida comadre Cristy, Carmen, Isabel, Francisco y David, así como a su esposa e hijas.

Recuerdo cuando el primo George vino a México hace casi 40 años. Nos enseñó varias palabras en inglés y jugamos baseball en la casa de la abuela Sara. Elevo una oración para que el alma de mi primo George encuentre el descanso de la vida eterna y que Dios lo reciba en su Gloria junto con nuestros hermanos que ya están en el cielo. Les mando un abrazo con mucho cariño a sus hijas (mis sobrinas) a su esposa (mi prima), a mi tía Cristi y a sus hermanos, para que en la esperanza de la resurrección y por la fe en la vida eterna, encuentren consuelo en sus corazones. Que los recuerdos por habernos encontrado en esta vida con George, llenen de alegría nuestros corazones a la espera del reencuentro con Dios.  Con cariño: Fernando Aguilar de México.

Mi querida familia!! Lamento mucho la pérdida y rezo para que su alma descanse en la presencia de Dios y por la pronta resignación de toda la familia!! Abrazos con mucho cariño

Dear Yvette, Isabella and Alicia. I’m so sorry for your loss. My heart is broken along side yours, but I promised your hubby/dad that I would be by your side in grief as well as celebration. I love you all and I will honor George’s memory always. 

Love, 
Laura (Tia Kiki)
