George was a very modest man and an extremely talented broadcaster. He will always have a special place in my heart.
I worked for him for many years at KFPW and honestly don't think I would have gotten where I did professionally or personally without him.
God bless George's family.

A lot of good memories of our high school and Ft. Smith Junior College days.
Sounds like George became Mr.Ft.Smith and raised a great family.
God bless.

My thoughts and prayers are with all of you. For some inexplicable reason George has been on my mind for the past week. I haven't seen him in over 10 years. We were partners (along with Bill Gravley, Bill Brown, and Gordon Brown) as owners of KFPW/KBBQ Radio many years ago. George was a delight to be around. He had such a quiet, easy-going demeanor and could always make me laugh. I admired his broadcasting expertise. He will be missed by many.
I hope you find comfort in knowing George is in Good Hands now.
