This memorial website was created in memory of our beloved son George Avery. We were so very blessed to have him in our lives for 20 years. George has a beautiful soul, he loved with his whole heart, and will be forever missed by all who knew him. 

George gave us so many wonderful memories, he was creative, intelligent, and had a wonderful sense of humor. George was a wonderful son, brother, a friend to all, who spread joy wherever he went. He enjoyed cooking and sharing his creations with friends and coworkers. George always made time to lend a supportive ear when needed. George had so much to offer this world but was taken from us too soon. 

We love to hear stories about George, please feel free to share your memories of George with us.

Dear George,

It seems infathomable that you have been gone for 5 years. I can still see the four of you(You, Gordon, Sam & Ben) running between our housese, playing video games, riding bikes, playing in the backyards. I can also perfectly see you bringing in your latest artistic creation to show me and tell me the entire story that went along with it. I hope that amazing imagination of yours is doing amazing things in heaven and know that many people remember and think of you and your family so fondly

Hey there George,
I can't believe it has been 5 years already. Seems not long ago when you came with us to the races! What a great day that was. My family misses you and I want to let you know that Nayomi does to. She still finds it very hard to come in here and leave a message, but I'm sure you know that you were and still are very dear to her heart and her best friend. I'm sure your watching over her and I thank you for that. We miss your comedy and kindness and hope that you are keeping the heavens on their toes. Fly high and keep drawing in the sky.

Dear George,
 It's amazing how time passes. It seems like yesterday you were here having dinner with your family. We always enjoyed your stories and sense of humor. I can see you driving down the street out of the corner of my eye. I'm blessed to have known such a beautiful soul. Hugs from your old friends and neighbors.

George, we received a lot of great news yesterday after a tough week. When all seemed to be almost impossible, we never lost faith. The timing is so meaningful and bittersweet, and we are so grateful to God. It's really quite amazing and overwhelming. I feel you with me everyday and I am so thankful that God allows me to feel your presence in my heart. I can't believe it's been five years today. I love you forever and I hope you are enjoying all of your favorites in heaven.❤

Happy birthday brother. It’s been two years since being home and Im bringing my wife back. It was always dream for you to meet her but I know you are around us everyday. I’m starting to be able to animate like you would. I’m realizing how hard it is to actually make that work. You are crazy talented and I’m jealous. Overall I’m half way through my audio program and couldn’t have done it without you. Love you George and I appreciate your support <3

We know you have been there with us thru it all but it still doesn't take away the pain of your loss. we see you in some of the things your brother does, and some of the things your niece now does. by this we still have a part of you here \. I love you and you'll always be my little Georgie. Happy Birthday, Love you. Dad

Happy 25th Birthday, my sweet George! ❤️
❤️❤️❤️ I'm loving all the signs of you, George, everyday. And I thank God for making them possible.

In honor of George today, let's pay it forward, or perform some random act of kindness! Be someone's hero in a small, wonderful way today.
And live! (Which is advice that I need to follow as well.) Live your life, and try new things! Even if nobody wants to join you. That is what George was all about, he didn't let anyone stop him. An old soul, he lived a lot of life in his 20 years! He took the trips, painted paintings, went to Mystical Journeys, joined D&D, got up on stage and sang with Kyle, started jogging, tried guitar, biked on bike trails, went to dances, concerts, movies. If nobody would join, he did it all on his own, with courage and without fear, at such a young age. A beautiful soul, beyond our years! ❤️❤️❤️❤️ I love you George!

George it’s been 4 years and has time flown by. I’m married now and becoming an audio engineer. Back then I told you all of the crazy things I will aspire to do and achieving them has felt so satisfying. I love the reminders you leave for me in my life that you are here to support me with Jordan also. The 3 of us were the three little goofballs that had hearts of desire to learn and change and make everyone around us happy. 3 kids that were tied by life since elementary school. George I miss you everyday, but the fact the changed my life is something that will always have you in my heart and soul. I love you and the family more than I could ever describe.

George always made us laugh with his stories and the best drawings. When he was a little boy, he always loved coming over for dinner with his family. Our pets always gravitated to him, especially the cats. A gentle loving soul and they knew it! Missing you friend. ❤️

I cannot believe that George has been gone 3 years now and it has to be even more incomprehensible for his family. His personality was larger than life and I have to believe that it is shining thru in the heavens. His energy & enthusiasm for whatever he was doing was contagious to those around him. George will always be in my heart and the heart of my kids who are so very proud to call him a friend. George, I hope heaven is full of art, music and creativity for you.

My family has known George and his family since they first moved to town years ago. It was so great to be friends and neighbors! George was always right in the middle of all our get-togethers, sharing his great stories, humor and artwork. He had a way about him that was enveloping and comforting and with such a great smile! It was easy to love George, a kind and gentle old-soul. We will forever miss him and his shining light. Peace and love to you George.

George was an exteremely brilliant man. During our shop days he tought me something new almost daily. He was one of the kindest, gentlest souls Ive ever met. Literally the type of guy to give you the shirt off his back. George felt like a brother to me, he was always there to talk when times got tough. We had lots of adventures together, lots of laughs and even some cries. Seriously gone way too soon. I think about him and my friend Seth daily and I know theyre watching over me every day. George if youre reading this I love and miss you immensely. You're gone but totally not forgotten.

George, you were a great addition to our family, the great friend you were to Nayomi, the things you helped her through. You were there for her in her time of need after her car accident, just dropping plans to come here and cheer you up when I told you she was at her lowest and lonely, when no one besides her father and I were here for her. You always had a way with words and a great sense of life. Always smiling even when you were so late Nayomi wanted to kick your butt...lol! We loved having you with us when we went to the drag races in New York, you were way too funny! You may have left but you left us with wonderful memories and a great sense of life. Your legacy lives on forever in all of our hearts George. ❤

George it has been over 2 years now. I have had a lot of coping to do since you left. But man I will tell you it is with upmost happiness that I have made it to a stage in my life that I know you are still here to guide me and be the angel around me. I love you so very much each and every day and want to thank God for Donna for making such a beautiful website.

Love you brother, everyday and always will <3

His Life

Our Miracle Baby

April 13, 2020
George was our little miracle baby, born a whole month early. His brother Gordon was just 1 year, and 4 months old. George was in the NICU for 5 weeks where he seemed to learn to sleep and eat like clockwork! He came home on a heart monitor for a short time. He is truly our miracle baby, and I believe now that he is an angel that was sent down to be with us for 20 years. He taught us all so much about courage, kindness and selflessness. He is such a sweet, loving person and will be missed forever. 

Sweet Toddler

April 13, 2020
George was a beautiful toddler who was always on the move! He loved to swing on the swings, ride in the car and would quickly fall asleep in both. He would often spin in circles and amazingly, never got dizzy! George loved to play with his big brother Gordon and loved going over to his Auntie Ann's house and playing with his cousins, William and Allen.  He was such a loving little boy who would sweetly hold your hand and touch your face with such care and love.

Elementary School Days

April 13, 2020
Our family was living in Springfield, Massachusetts when George started preschool and Kindergarten. We moved to Florida for about 8 months following George's 1st grade year, returning to Springfield for 2nd grade. We lived with his Gram in Springfield until we found our current home in Blandford.

Easter Eggs

April 11, 2023
We have great memories of Easter egg hunts with the family. Here is my favorite Easter pic of George with his Easter eggs <3

Outsiders Picture

August 1, 2022
George didn't leave the house without a book or a pad of paper and pencil to keep him occupied. So, he was always creating cartoons and drawings. George drew this great mouse picture based on The Outsiders book that I believe they had just read in Mr. Dekarski's class at the time. Thank you to Ms. Dekarski for sharing this with us. ❤️

Serenity Painting

August 1, 2022
I just rediscovered this beautiful painting George had made for one of his favorite teachers, Ms. Luppino, when he was in middle school. She wrote us a beautiful letter and so thoughtfully enclosed a picture of this beautiful painting. Thank you so much for sharing this with us, Ms. Luppino. ❤️
