My sympathies for your loss. I had the good fortune of working with George for about 12 years at the CO Department of Regulatory Agencies while he was Executive Office of the CO Electricians and Plumbers Board. Always a competent and smart manager and of fine character and cheer (great sense of humor!). Outside of the office, I think that George knew every back road that existed in the southern Rockies. Such a wonderful person of a sort we see far too seldom in life.
