George Gorey, 67, of Sinking Springs, passed away on October 8, 2025.
Born on July 13, 1958, in Washington, D.C., he was the son of the late James and Phyllis Gorey.
After graduating high school, George built a successful career in sales. Known for his knowledge and genuine care for customers, he spent 19 years at Lowe’s as a plumbing specialist, where he became a customer favorite for his expertise, patience, and thoroughness.
Outside of work, George enjoyed spending time at the shooting range and had a special talent for giving thoughtful gifts—so much so that he dedicated an entire room to them. His grandchildren would fondly say, “Pop loves to shop”. He also had an interest in politics and enjoyed keeping up with current events.
George is survived by his daughter, Rachael Moon (Josiah); his beloved grandchildren, Evelyn, Miles, and Theresa, all of Mount Joy; his brother, James Gorey (Pamela ); and his sister, Nancy Smyth (Ward).
Services will be held at the convenience of the family.

My thoughts and prayers to all of George’s family. I and my daughter both worked with George at Lowes. Always calm and helpful, and interested in our family. The last time I ran into him at Lowes he was retiring in 2 days. So glad I got to say good bye .
