  9. George was such an inspiration to so many. He was one of Junie\’s closest friends; not only a friend, but a mentor. Junie thought the world of him,and although I personally didn\’t know him that well, I feel like I did because of Junie\’s friendship with him. And my Momma – she really loved him and enjoyed talking with him about the Lord. To all his children – God will grant a peace (to you) that passes ALL understanding. His word says so, and He does not lie. I\’ve experienced that peace so often in life. He\’s at HOME now; no more pain. He\’s truly happy. May God Bless all of you.

  14. I just saw this obituary. I had not heard the news of George passing. Truly one of the nicest people I have ever known. We worked together and shared so many conversations. He inspired me with his will power and found faith as his greatest strength. I wish I had known that he was sick and passed. I miss you George, Russell M.
