Yes we will all miss George. George was a great person on and off the combat field. yes George, you will always be on the A Team. R.I.P. brother

Nov 13th, 1978 , after attending Training classes together we both began our careers together at the Bronx Whitestone Bridge. We along with two other " Newbies" ( Mike Chin and Jimmy Dennison) formed a natural bond. George , Thank you for trying your best to teach me the finer points of marksmanship. Thank you for helping me and Judy find our Apt in Queens down the block from you. Thank you for the family outings in Flushing Meadow Park. Thank you for never forgetting where you came from . Will never forget the bond that was formed nearly 42 years by the 4 of us. Say hi to Jimmy..Rest in Peace to you both.

George was a good Christian man. He did his job the right way and tried to share some humor along the way. In fact when George passed probation as a sergeant and myself as a BTO, I purchased his old model 10 duty weapon from him at the HHB. We had the opportunity to shoot together and represent TBTA on the PPC combat team. Rest well my friend. Blessings!

I truly miss George, he was one of my best friends and a shooting team partner at numerous Police Olympics up in Albany NY. I know he is in a better place now but he will be missed by all who knew him.

I am deeply saddened to learn of George's passing. 

I was privileged to know George personally during my tenure as president of MTA Bridges and Tunnels and met with him numerous times along with his team mates who brought much honor to the department through their collective efforts in combat shooting competitions. George served us with distinction, especially during the critical period of the attacks on the World Trade Center in 1993 and 2001. These were difficult times for all and George rose to the challenge in the highest possible tradition of public service. I shall always be grateful to him for his dedicated service. 

My deepest condolences to his family and friends. He will be sorely missed

George was one of my favorite people. Strong but gentle and always ready to go the extra mile. He will definitely be missed. Much Love George, rest well. ❤❤❤

God speed george

Georgie, R.I.P. brother.

George was an amazing Step Dad and a true man. He will truly be missed. He taught me so many life lessons and we have so many wonderful memories together. He was firm but loveable. He worked so hard and played harder. He spoiled me and my sisters and made sure we had everything we needed and then some.  From family vacations, weekends in PA with friends, and just enjoying life, food and movies together he treated me like his daughter. He took me to the Thanksgiving Day Parade and the NYC Marathon every year as a kid. He commanded respect and I admired that about him. He will always have a special place in my heart. Te Amo Papi, descansa en paz te lo ganaste!!

Brother George was quite a guy! A friend, a brother-in-Christ, a co-worker, teammate, prayer warrior and more. He could put a smile on your face one minute and remind you of God's Grace and mercy the next. We'll never get another buddy like George.

We will always remember our friend and brother in Christ George as a kind and caring man. We always enjoyed our conversations and the time that we spent together. We believe that one day we will see each other again in Heaven and enjoy the Presence of our God without the pains and sufferings of this fallen world.

Te vamos a extrañar George, pero nos veremos luego amado hermano.

George pretended to be a tough guy, apart from affection, and a stand alone monolhytic figure. He failed miserably portraying that. Just gave him an afternoon, and you would saw who he truly was: a warm pancake covered in butter and syrup, sprinkled with integrity, and the desire to give you his heart and attention at the first opportunity. He was the absolutely best grandpa for my kids. The best cook I ever met. And the best target I ever had to bother somebody. I spent years trying to hug him, and to uncomb his hear. He never liked neither, he cursed me, and looked at me with despise, but the day before he passed away, he called me to tell me "I love you, Fernando". What better proof of attachment between two souls than that?
If I don't miss him now, it's just because I know he is present in the life of many people around me, and soon or later we'll end it up talking about him.
