Georgia and Bob and your families I am so sorry on the passing of your dad. I have great memories of conversations with both of your parents and they able to assist me on city issues many times. My thought's and prayers for all.
I met George over 13 years ago when we moved into our place and he became our neighbor. We served together in leadership roles at what was formerly St. Marks Episcopal Church in Marine City, and then at Holy Family Episcopal Church in St. Clair. When our minister retired at St. Marks, George was one of the folks who would stand in and deliver the Sunday messages. His faith was obviously so deep; his thoughts, teachings and passion for his church and caring for his fellow parishioners touched us all. The deep feelings and emotions he displayed for God acting in his life moved him and served as a guide in the life of both churches. That legacy is something that we all carry in our hearts, minds, and souls now and will continue to do so long into the future. He was a kind and gentle man; a wise man. He listened and gave heartfelt counsel. He had great stories about the area we found ourselves new to, it's history, the river and of course, the freighters. I remember when he and Irene got married. He was looking so daper in his tux; and he was so nervous. I remember telling him how lucky he was, and how he and Irene's big day was the social event of the year. His smile made it so evident how happy he was in that time and place in his life. What a gift for all of us to witness the love that he and Irene found in one another. Their joy, laughter, and kind hearts were a promising example to all of us of the deepest gift that God makes available to all those willing to open their hearts to it; true love. Men like George are few and far between anymore. I am proud to have known him. I am thankful for how he touched my life. The gift of life flows from the heart of our Creator. George knew that well and took that precious gift in each and every day. May he forever dwell in the peace of God which passes all understanding. May he forever be aware of how his life was a blessing to all whom he touched. And may his family be ever blessed by the memories of the good and faithful life that he led.
