I remember George from our days at Cyprus High School.  He was a wonderful kid with a great personality.  He will be missed on this earth.

George was a great man and friend I will definitely miss him, We are very thankful for his many years of hard work and dedication to Granite School District. George thanks for your friendship, I always admired your calm nature and willingness to help, you were a great example to others. My thoughts and prayers are with the family, I am very sorry for your loss.

I just found out that my friend George is not with us any longer. George and I went to school together, we took auto shop classes together. We both had a love of cars and mechanics. We had many good times together growing up. He was the best man at my wedding in 1978. My wife Leslie and I both loved George. He had a big heart. He was a good friend. We moved away from the Salt Lake area and did not get to see George as often. I would talk to him every now and then and it was always good to catch up on old times. Our hearts are sad at this time. I will miss my friend. We will never forget you. Hope to be at the services on Monday.

  George was a wonderful man.. very much enjoyed working with him. Blessings and comfort to the family.

My brother, my Hero, My Protector. He is everything to me. I am truly lost. I know he will always be by my side, but I am very selfish, I want my Hero. Words will not be enough, my heart aches, my tears are endless. I love you George, you are my rock. My foundation.  Always being there at drop of hat whenever I called, no questions, you just came. Sometimes just calling you would put my worries at rest, hearing your reassuring voice, "it's going to be ok, I will always be here" was always what I needed to hear, just to know my Hero is always right here, by me. I will forever love you George, I am so blessed that I was given you as my brother.  I keep writing because there will never be enough words to tell you thank you for everything, all your unconditional love, support, time, my beautiful trip with you to New York last year.  My treasures I will keep in my heart forever. Please rest in pease, find joy, share your love and laughter with all, they will all want to never leave your presence. This is how truly an AMAZING brother, friend, confidant you are.

  Thank's for everything George.Forever great full working with you and knowing you. God Bless.

I will miss my friend George. He was a coworker at GSD. A couple times a week, I'd walk by him while he was outside taking a break. Sometimes brief other times lengthy our conversations were always enjoyable. Throughout the years, I don't think we talked about any one topic more than once. He was a reserved man and I respected him for such but I wished now he would have shared more. His greeting each time, " How's Todd". I wondered often times when he'd walk away if he'd  think to himself, I put 25 cents in that chatterbox and got a dollar's worth. His knowledge on vehicle repair, his loyalty to his job and friends and one who had a hard time accepted accolades is what made him such a special person. I will forever be grateful for all he did for me and cherish our long friendship. Godspeed George.

Aunt Nancy, Uncle Glenn, and all of my cousins. Randy and I are so very sorry to hear about the loss of George! We wish e could be there for his service, but aren't able to make it. We want you to know we love you all and you are all in our hearts and prayers!
Love Randy & Deb
