"George is a great American, and endearingly called Our Beach Boy by Grace Mary Brady during her presentation that captured images of George's life at a recent Town of Chesapeake Beach Council meeting. George has accomplished many things, but his passion was honoring, protecting and providing for our U.S. veterans. I can not imagine a better place to celebrate George's life than at the American Legion Post 206 in Chesapeake Beach, MD",  stated Mayor Patrick "Irish" Mahoney.
