George had been employed by Weiss Farms, Marseilles Brick Factory, and Midwest Operating Engineers Local #150 until he retired in February of 2020 to be a grandpa. He enjoyed helping friends and family complete tasks and working on projects in his garage, all while helping to maintain the family farm. George liked fishing and attending drag races. He was a loving husband, devoted father, and loyal friend. He was always willing to sacrifice himself to help others and was well-known for having the ability to fix anything.
