I became friends with George after he came to Lowes, and we stayed in touch after he retired. He is the only person I know who would text me and ask if I had time to take a phone call from him! I can't remember a time when I didn't have time, and when I didn't enjoy time talking with someone more than I did with George. Yes, we talked a lot of politics, but we also both had roots in Western North Carolina and shared a love for it, although he was from "west of the Balsams" and I was not. I will truly miss the times we talked and laughed together, whether it was in person or on the phone. George was a wonderful man who gave much more than he took in this world. I am very sorry I didn't know about his passing and the service, or you can bet I would have been there wearing my seersucker suit, even though my midwestern wife hid it from me somewhere years ago.

Liz, Milton & family,
George and I became friends in 1981 and I have cherished his friendship for all these years. George was a brilliant attorney and most of all a compashionate person. His quick sense of humor and willingness to listen was only a portion of his all round, outgoing personality. We spoke often and I will always cherish his friendship and loyalty. Rest in peace my dear friend. My sincere condolences to his family. Eileen McNeil
I met George in the 1980's when both he and I were active in Democratic Party politics at the state level. He took an interest in, and assisted me in, my ultimately unsuccessful 1984 campaign for the N. C. Court of Appeals. We talked from time to time thereafter and I have always admired his activism. I am saddened by his passing and send sincere condolences to the family.
