For George’s family, I hope we are all able to convey how amazing of a person George was to all of us who knew him through his work in our fandom communities. He had a rare combination of enthusiasm, expertise and kindness that made it a pleasure to just talk to him. The world would be a far better place if there were more people like George, and his absence is sorely felt.

I’m glad I got to know and spend time with George. He was a true gentleman, kind to a fault, and loved knowing that the work he was doing was making people happy. Moving forward in the trading card world won’t be the same without you.
