George worked as an accountant for the United States Post Office for 37 years until his retirement in 1979. He was a member of Immaculate Conception Catholic Church in Mechanicsville and frequently enjoyed attending services there with his family. George loved watching sports, especially football, baseball and golf. On those crisp fall Sundays, he was always watching his favorite team, the Washington Redskins. In the spring, he could be found cheering on the Washington Nationals as they scored run after run on the baseball diamond. George was a man full of wanderlust. He loved to travel, visit and explore new places and definitely knew his way around a map. A family man with a heart of gold, George’s favorite thing was to be surrounded by his loved ones, whom he cherished.
