George lost his battle with cancer June 28th. He was a wonderful Husband, Father and Grandfather who will be deeply missed. My Mom used to tell me about the day our paperboy (George) came knocking on the door. He told her that he had a brother and that she should keep me away from him because he was a bad penny. Funny that so many years later George and Phil, their wives and families are such good friends. He is in my heart always.

I believe that when I had my accident on the ski slopes, in Vernon, NY, during our senior year, and I went to the hopspital, George made sure I made it home safe. He was a true gentleman, knowing the pain I was in and he accompanied me home from the school bus! Great Memories, my condolences to his family!!!

George was one of my student interns when I worked in the BHS Attendance Office. He was a good typist and office worker and very polite. Rest in peace George.
