The loss of George will have a tremendous impact on many people. I miss seeing him at work everyday – there is a feeling of emptiness each time I pass his office! I wonder if that will ever pass. I feel I have lost a wonderful friend and co-worker. Knowing he is finally out of pain helps ease the sadness. My deepest sympathy, Carol, to you and family members. You are in my thoughts and prayers.
George was truly a gentleman I enjoyed working with him. I know that he is in a far better place.
God bless him, his family, and those who mourn his passing.
George and I worked together for 8 years developing IEEE and NEMA standards. George was a hard worker and he was fun to spend time with at the meetings. I will miss George, his smile and his friendly attitude at our meetings. George was a great man.
I have only know George for three years through his work with the National Electrical Manufacturers Association NEMA. He was instrumental in pushing standards for surge protective devices. He spent many hours working with other manufacturers to develop electrical standards. We will all miss his warm smile and his tough questions. I am sorry for your loss.
I have worked with George for the past 6 years through the National Electrical Manufacturers Association NEMA. He was a regular at our meetings and was the driving force behind some of the standards activities. His friendship and expertise will be missed. He is in a far better place. God Bless.
Carolyn, Our prayers and thoughts are with you and your family . Always keep in mind we are right next door if you need anything.
Please except our deepest sympathy.
I knew George and Carol before they were a couple… when we all worked and lived in Mass in the 70s80s… and what a couple they were and will always be along with being two special individuals.
I am sorry to hear about George’s passing. I have worked with George for about 12 years in various committees IEEE, NEMA, UL associated with lightning protection products. George was a great guy who will be missed.
