So sad to hear, had lots of good times together when we were younger. Concerts and KSHE kite festival.
My biggest memory of Sesh, which has been his nickname for me since high school was riding around in the country out west of Vandalia drinking a few beers and we listened to the Rolling Stones for about two or three hours, and I mentioned that to him when I have seen him and he always remembers it. He was worn out outstanding person. I always told him that I thought he looked like Mick Jagger. My prayers are with Nancy and the rest of the family. He was one great guy. Jeff Nevinger
George was my cell leader, when I first hired on with GSI in the Vandalia plant. We were friends and worked together for several years for GSI at Vandalia, Taylorville and Flora. Went to my first Rolling Stones concert with him and Nancy, in Chicago, with my wife, Bobbye. We rode the train up there and back. Had a great time. He loved music and food! He will be greatly missed by all who knew him. RIP George.

Thanks for all of the great memories..
The Vandalia High School Class of 1976..
We worked at Reaban's together. On Monday nights we were responsible to clean the filters above the grill. Dave had that blue panel truck. He would go to the car wash and clean the filters and wash his truck. Then he would drive around Vandalia for about 45 minutes, coming by the restaurant and laughing and waving at us. He was so much fun to work with!!!
That is only one memory....There are many.. Times when Dave, Carol and the kids lived in CA and we would visit. I was in the first wedding and most of all the parties on 8th Street... Rest in peace my friend..

He shared his love of music with me years ago. We dated for two years when I was in high school. He took me to my first concert in 1977… Led Zeppelin, so many fond memories, and never a dull moment. I’ll always have a special place in my heart for him and his family who accepted me into their circle, and will never forget them and sweet Mama Lillie. ♥️
