He will be lovingly and fondly remembered. Missed tremendously by family and friends.
George was privileged to have many relationships who became family. His family is honoured to recognise those very many relationships and our sharing in them. George was of Exuma; and Exuma was in George. He lived and died with Exuma and Exumians on his mind and in his heart. This love is eternal.
George was a dedicated nationalist, who was deeply committed to the progressive advancement of The Bahamas and empowering Bahamians to do extraordinary things.
May His Soul Rest in Peace!
