We are so sorry for the loss of George. He had a great sense of humor, and was a great supporter of the Warwick community. Sadly, we are losing so many of the Class of 1959.

Heard about George’s passing just yesterday. We were childhood friends and I hung out at his home with his sister Shirley. We recently found each other on FB & I was planning to come to Warwick to visit this summer he knew of my plans. He had just gotten home from a cruise recently and had caught a cold. I am shocked at his passing & very sad he was a wonderful man. Someone please reach out to me tell me what happened.
