My sincere condolences to Mary. George was a shining star in Weslaco and a great leader. I often think of how he patiently lead Weslaco, not only in aviation but in disaster organization. We were so lucky to have an organizer such as George that taught us and gave us all a job that kept Weslaco and the Mid-valley safe during natural disasters. So many communities don’t have such a kind and caring leader. I considered George a good friend and I will keep him alive in my memories and heart. He left us with so many memories and skills that we can teach others.
It was a pleasure to have known and worked with Mr. Garrett. Our most sincere condolences to his entire family. May he rest in eternal peace ðŸ™
We are very saddened to learn of George's passing. George loved Weslaco and the people who lived here. He served as the first director of the Weslaco airport. George's leadership lead to a eight million dollar expansion of the Weslaco airport and his presence is still felt to this day.
George always had time to help others and he did it by his actions. He had the ability to see the big picture and gather the necessary people around him in order to accomplish whatever task needed to be done. The word no was not in George's volcabulary. George enjoyed a great sense of humor and he made many life long friends.
We send our deepest sympathy to his wife Mary and his brother and other family members. George will always be remembered for his positive impact on Weslaco, the people who live here, and his many years of leadership and service.
