George proudly served our country in the United States Army from 1945-1946. He was affectionately known to many as Professor. George worked hard his entire life at various places and retired from the Concord Hotel in 1998 as a manager. He enjoyed being home, watching Western movies, Matlock, reading his Bible but most importantly playing the piano. He loved to look at back at pictures and remember the good old days.
