Dear Sandee & family—we were very sorry to hear of George’s passing. As a new hire at Burroughs in 1979 I worked with George. He was a great mentor, incredibly knowledgeable and supportive. He was respected by his clients and all those he worked with at Burroughs/Unisys. George was funny with a quick wit and always dedicated to doing his best for all. Our sincere condolences.

Just across the back lawn, could see George mowing or grilling. Amazing his patience of flying all the time with his work. Condolences to Sandee and the girls at such a sudden and unexpected loss and hole in the family fabric at this time in the family history. He had more years to guide and support you all.
