He is survived by his wife Patti Spink; children Genie (John) Beecher, Judy (Dennis) Clarkson, Gary (Vicki) Spink, Cory (Greg) Grinaker; eight grandchildren and eight great-grandchildren.

George was very active in the community of Cottonwood. He was the Sight & Hearing chairman for the Cottonwood Lions Club for the last seven years. The club bestowed upon him the Melvin Jones Fellow Award for his dedication to humanitarian services.

He also volunteered at the Old Town Mission where he served for more than six years. He helped with the food drives, served lunches and helped with the newsletter.
