I met George in 7th Grade when I started Judkins and became good friends with him and then spent a couple of years with him in High School. I would hang out @ his house after school as well. He was super cool,very friendly and funny. I was bummed when I heard the news. He was heartbroken!

George was my neighbor & my brothers friend for as long as i could recall- i was 12 and newly interested in boys and had a huge crush on George at the time of his death...he was so nice to me even though i was just his pal's little brat sister! He made me feel like I was special. I wish he would have stayed with us longer.

I was very affected by George's death.

We met in junior high, and he was such a nice, cool guy. I remember his braces and smile, and I considered him a true friend. I think about his often.

You are missed!

I am George's older sister and my life changed the day I lost him. I miss him so much, even after all these years. He was so very very special. Even at his young age, he was still a great uncle to my 3 girls. He was so funny and always fun to be around; always had ways to make me laugh. We would make up special little songs and sing them to eachother. We would laugh so hard. I love and miss you with all my heart, George. We will be together again one day.

George became one of my closest and most cherished friends in High School.
He was everything you could hope for in a friend; kind, generous, thoughtful, caring and considerate of others and their feelings.
A gentle and peaceful spirit, but clever and witty. All of us that knew him well miss him in the most profound way. For myself, the pain and sense of loss has never eased. We all miss you George Bledsoe. This place just ain't the same without you!
Proud to have called you my friend, and truly hope to see you again.
