George was one of the greatest pigeon fanciers I have every had the pleasure to meet and I deem it a great honour to call him one of my ‘Pal’s’. As many of you know who read my column George has been ill for some time and although not well his death has come as a great shock not only to his family but the whole pigeon community. He was one of the larger than life characters and great company to be in; he could talk the legs of a donkey but this did not matter as he was what we would call a ‘Gentle Giant’. A first class pigeon man who set the goalposts for everyone to try and achieve and believe me many will never reach the height’s set by this great man. I am going to do a tribute to George over the coming days as I feel this man deserves the recognition for all he has achieved in his life. To his wife Marcia; children Richard; Sharron and Gareth and their immediate families; his brother Dennis and sister May we send this will be published in the BHW from his freind JOE MURPHY
