EARLY DAYS George
was born and raised in Detroit Michigan, a city that is lost. It was a good city when he was a child.
It began to deteriorate after World War II. The suburbs started and the automobile factories relocated their production
facilities in various parts of this country and now the world. Slowly the city fell apart. Many people hope for the
recovery of the city but this is far fetched. Detroit was once a vibrant, safe city of over 4 million paople, now it
is a city of approximately 700,000 people and has negative reputation in many catagories. George has
lived in many of the suburbs of Detroit. He was involved or I should say he was a professional salesman during his
entire working career after graduating from college. He has always maintained that nothing happens until something is
sold. This became the title of his first book. It was intended to be a text book for a potential sales course he
was about to teach at Kirtland Community College in Roscommon County. SALES EXPERIENCE - CREATING JOBS George has sold a variety of items, household
appliances, automobiles, investments/insurance, paper products, candy, pet foods, commercial/industrial/domestic lighting. His
last selling job was selling parts and supplies for domestic, commercial and industrial appliances ( such as washers,
dryers, ranges, dishwashers, furnaces, air conditioners, etc.) to wholesale dealers. In 1971, he
formed his own sales company called Somerset Marketing Company. He represented many companies and sold to the appliance
parts and supply trade. George has created many jobs becaus of the axiom, nothing happens until something
is sold. When something is sold then someone has to manufacture this product, hence a job is created. Selling
does create jobs. Some things are purposely omitted about George for personal and national security
reasons. PERSONAL INFO George
was married to Audree for 37 years. When she was informed of her imminent dem ise, she said to George, "Listen,
I have something to tell you. I am going to see Jesus.......and ........you are going to have to learn how to cook."
George has 5 grandchildren, also known as, "Divine Treasure, #1, #2, #3, #4 and
#5." PLUS 2 Great-Grand children (Boys)
