George Robert Durang, Jr., 86, entered into eternal rest on Thursday, January 1, 2015, at his residence in Brethren Village. George was the son of the late George R. Durang, Sr. and Cleta (Reddick) Durang. He was the loving husband of the late Dolores (Clavin) Durang with whom he was married 25 years.

A graduate of Frandford High School in Philadelphia, he served in the US Air Force before being honorably discharged in 1952 as Staff Sergeant.

George joined Meryl Lynch in 1958 and began a long career as a stock trader, subsequently working for a number of brokerage firms. He eventually moved to Lancaster where he retired after 15 years as Vice President and Manager of the trading department at CoreStates Bank.

An active member of St. John Neumann Roman Catholic Church, George is survived by his daughter LeeAnn, wife of David DiCola, and a granddaughter Nicolette Marie, all of West Chester.

George was an avid sports fan, a history buff, and a lover of good music and fast cars. He loved to travel, especially to his beloved Newfoundland. He was stationed there in 1950, and returned many times to enjoy the peace and serenity of the beautiful island and its people.
