This memorial website was created in memory of our loved one, Harry George, 85 years old, beloved husband of 36 years of Nancy Packard George, died August 3, 2020. He was born in Oakmont, PA. on February 21, 1935 to the late Harry Mike George and Virginia Wadsworth. He is survived by his wife and five children; Diane (Lloyd) Moore, Cheryl Dudek, Justin (Amy) Bales, Meghan (Thomas) O’Brien, and Nathan (Kara) Bales; 16 grandchildren, 15 great grandchildren and 2 great-great grandchildren. He was the loved and respected brother of eight siblings. Many will remember Harry for his “many lives”.
His many elaborate stories kept everyone entertained. He definitely worked hard and played hard. Harry was always a good provider and his many occupations included: garbage collector, actor, preacher, carpenter, electrician, musician, chef, contractor, oil tycoon, public speaker, writer, fisherman, horseman, inventor, entrepreneur and always celebrated two birthdays. Harry was always adventurous, fearless and generous - from motorcycle gangs to Dom Perignon for all! In most recent years, he enjoyed sitting on his front porch with Nancy, his cigarettes, his books and a glass of scotch.
Harry was a decorated veteran of the United States Marine Corps serving during the Korean War.
A military funeral / memorial will be planned for a later date.
