George was an amazing maintenance person and engineer. He was funny and intelligent and possessed a heart of gold. There was never a day that George did not share his smile and silliness with each person he worked with. He was honestly one of my favorite persons to work with on a daily basis. My condolences go out to his wife and his family. He has left an incredible void in daily existence. Rest in peace, George. You will be missed!
