He was a veteran of the U.S. Army and the U.S. Marine Corps with service in the Korean War.

He pastured several churches in Georgia and Florida before being called to Yukon Baptist Church on December 3, 1978 where he served until his passing.
He was a talented artist, poet, and musician, but mostly George was a loving husband, father, grandfather, and friend.

"Bill" Futch; also many other loving family members and friends.

Funeral services in celebration of his life will be held at 11:00 AM on Tuesday January 19, 2016 at Yukon Baptist Church, 4552 120th St, Jacksonville, FL 32244.
