George Boss – R.I.P.

To the Fathomiers:  Gary Thompson notified me this afternoon that one of the original Fathomiers, George Boss passed away Thursday, May 17.

(George on far left side in back row)

 

His funeral will be next Saturday, May 26

at The Murietta Valley Funeral Home.

24651 Washington Ave.. Murietta Ca. 92562.
Contact number is 951- 696-0626.

Starts at 11am.
I am sad to see this, but I am also glad that I convinced George to come to our banquet and speak for the club about Al Shuck. George was in pretty bad shape for the last several years with very bad back pain. I am glad to see his suffering end, but feel a loss as another of the original members has passed on.
