George served our nation proudly and valiantly in the US Navy.

George, a dedicated patriot, always remembered his military comrades and spent many years riding with the Patriot Guard to honor his fellow service members. As a motorcycle enthusiast, he traveled extensively across the country, appreciating its natural beauty. In addition to riding, George enjoyed playing pool, golfing, bowling, and practicing at the shooting range.
