George Hill was bigger than life. He was there for thousands of athletes when they got injured. He was simply the best!

To George’s family and multiple friends I send condolences, but also convey many fond memories of a very special man. I met George in the early 1980s at a lawyers’ meeting in Chicago. His good nature and self-degrading sense of humor were two of his many great attributes. He probably did more than any other attorney to help professional athletes to secure workers’ compensation benefits, including future medical care for life, than anyone in the United States. He and his smile will be forever remembered and missed.
Best regards,
Jeff Walsh

We at the NFLPA all mourn George's passing, as I do personally as a long time friend.  He was a pioneer for players in helping them realize and obtain important state law benefits for their injuries.  Hundreds (if not more) of players have him to thank for the  lifetime medical care and other benefits he helped them obtain.  And on a personal level, he was the kind of friend who was with you more in the difficult times than the easy ones.  Thanks George, and thank you, Stephanie, for sharing him with us.  You are both in our thoughts and prayers.  Richard 

George was a mentor to me, always helping, always teaching, even though we were on opposite sides of cases.  I'll miss his sage advice, as well as his huge personality and sense of humor.

I was a WC defense atty on some of Heorges cases. He was always a pleasure to work with. I enjoyed his intelligence and sense of humor. He will be missed.
