I loved my Papa like a second dad after I lost my dad and I was very close to him. I will miss him but will never forget him. I love u!!!!
I loved putting puzzles together with my Papa. We loved to race to the last puzzle piece. We liked to make up funny faces and funny dances. Every time I would come over we would sit in the living room and watch Gunsmoke. Sometimes we would even watch cartoons together.
I loved George like he was my own father. He will be greatly missed. Sending lots of love, hugs and prayers
I sure will miss you Uncle G. You sure made us laugh alot and we enjoyed doing home videos , you as the camera man. We would get so excited when you,Aunt Iva Lee and the girls would come see us in Texas. And me and my kids and grandkids loved coming to visit you all during the summers. I love you Uncle G.
Brother I sure do love you and I’m going to miss you so much but I know you’re at peace now. Our hearts may be breaking here on earth but heaven is rejoicing ❤️

I will always cherish the fun memories we had he was like a 3rd dad to me. I Love you, my wonderful papa.
Uncle G, I love you dearly. You were always funny and joked with me. I would always look forward to the times Granny, Papa, and I would come visit you, Aunt Iva Lee, Rhonda, Pam, Tanya, Barbara, and Linda. I remember you and Daddy would go bottle and arrow head hunting. I remember very well that red truck you had, the clean kitchen with the white stove, and that HUGE fan you had in the window. Rest in Peace now, Uncle.
I send my condolences to all my family for your loss. As a kid I always enjoyed spending a few days every summer at his house making music videos like we were stars. He was so gentle soft spoken and kind.
He definitely was a good man, like a 2nd dad to myself and Mom Roulston too. We will see him again one day in that Heavenly home. Love and prayers to the family.
I loved my Papa like a 3rd father. I’m glad he got to watch me grow up, i love you papa
Prayers for all your girls… and all your family… I know your beautiful rose as I call her (Barbara) I love her dearly… may you Rest In Peace and I already feel you holding Jesus hand…

I will miss papa, I remember spending many summers with papa when school was out and going out to the woods and riding 4 wheelers, he has taught me a lot when I was growing up. We would go out in the woods and he would teach me about all kids of stuff about nature. I love you papa.
Pam, we are sorry for the lost of your dad, we know he is now healed. Just pray the Lord will comfort you and your family during this time of sorrow.

Words can’t express how much my papa meant to me, and I know how special he was to everyone. He was loved, he was cherished and he was a very special person in the lives of many. He will never be forgotten. In our hearts and memories he will live forever, and with our God he lives eternally until we see each other again I will miss him terribly
Oh Uncle Gubby , you were one of a kind that’s for sure . You were an amazing husband a loving father and one of the best uncles a niece could have. You will be greatly missed but forever loved. My most sincere condolences to my Aunt and cousins & loved ones.
My papa was a great man and loved the lord with all his heart. He thought me many things when it came to cooking which was his favorite thing too so for us when we would come over. I remember lots of other things he thought me and I will always remember him when doing those things he will always be loved and never forgotten
