There is way to many memories over the last 50 some years to put into words. One thing I do know is the McGinsies have been family to us. George, my brother, I’m going to miss the hell out of you. You will always be in my heart. Rest in peace!
I only spoke to George a few times but he was a kind and patient man. I’m grateful for the positive relationship he had with my parents and continued with my mother after my father’s passing. My mom has always spoken very highly of George.
My prayers are with Christina and their sons that each of you are lifted up by God now and in the future. May He bring all George’s family and friends strength and peace.
I lived across the street from George growing up and fondly remember him and his 3 brothers. My condolences to his entire family. May God bless you all.

I first met George about 20 years ago. Through the years, he set me up with several annuities and health insurance, all of which have worked out very well.
But the best part was the visits several times a year to the Detroit area where I am. He would give updates, suggestions and good advice
But most of the time was spent just on our mutual interests in sports, music, dining and family stories.
George was much more than just my financial advisor.
He was a friend.
Rest easy buddy.
You are missed—-
