My dear friends and family,

I never imagined I would be writing an obituary for George. The love, support, kind words, stories, photos, and prayers you have shared mean more to our family than words could ever express.

George truly loved people. He loved his family, his home, and the community he built through The New Jesters for 42 years. Seeing how many lives he touched has brought comfort during the hardest days of our lives.

Thank you for loving him the way he loved all of you.

We will be planning a Celebration of Life for this wonderful man and will share the details soon. We know George would want everyone together laughing, telling stories, sharing memories, and celebrating the life he lived so fully. ❤️

It is with the heaviest heart that I share this…

Today, the Flint community lost a legend. We lost George. A husband, father, uncle, friend, owner of The New Jesters for 42 years, and owner of Mr. G’s Nightclub.

George was more than a business owner. He was the smile behind the bar, the laugh across the room, the handshake at the door, and the guy who made people feel like family the second they walked in.

One of the most common questions at Jesters was always, “Where’s George?” because he was always there. Talking with customers, helping staff, fixing something, making people laugh and smile, or simply making sure everyone was okay.

For 42 years, George gave his heart to Jesters and his community. He truly loved his customers. You gave him purpose, memories, stories to tell, and a reason to keep showing up every single day. Jesters was never just a bar to him, it was his second home. All of you became part of his extended family.

We’re going to miss hearing those familiar radio commercials, “Hey everybody, this is George from Jesters!” followed by the words he always preached, “Please, think when you drink!”

Thank you all for loving George the way he loved all of you.

Please keep our family, friends, staff, and everyone who loved him in your prayers as we try to navigate this unimaginable loss. ❤️
