Dear Judy, the “boys” and all the family,
My deepest sympathies to you all. The love George had for you all and the love you had for him was something I witnessed first hand. It was so wonderful to see the support you all gave him. 
George was a true gentleman.
May your many precious memories bring comfort. The tribute video was beautiful. 
My prayers for your comfort.

We were so sorry to hear of George’s passing.  We remember him as a kind and helpful postmaster at the Rheems PO.  He was always ready for conversation.  It didn’t matter what topic.  One specific memory was over the time of one of your wedding anniversaries.    He spoke with tenderness for his loving wife.  After viewing the beautiful tribute video, I can understand even more of the love he had for you and your family.     Don and Phyllis Kreider

Deepest sorrow to the entire family. George and I were in high school together, Shaler High School class of 65. He was a good friend, and a great athlete.  We are all getting to old to soon.

We knew George from working at Rheems Post Office. I use to take him a donut or sugar cookie every now and then. He always talked highly of his family and was a great person. Prayers and sympathy to all of you! Rita & Claude Schwanger🙏🏻❤️
