George was an avid outdoorsman whose passions included hunting, fishing, and a little gold panning. In 1961, George graduated from Washington High School and married Carolyn, the love of his life. In 1978, George moved Carolyn and his three girls west where he spent the next 40 years in Wyoming and Colorado.

He had some wonderful adventures and made some amazing friends. After he retired, George moved back to Mississippi to enjoy the peaceful Southern breeze and do some fishing. George lived a life full of adventure and fun.
