Reply to "George Wybenga - Orange Hall"

This is very sad news; I have known George for about ten years. He was a member of another forum I belong to, and we became friends both on line and in person at York. I spoke to George for quite some time on Thursday before the hall opened, and he was very excited about a book he was readying to publish. George was passionate about cabooses, and his trade name is Caboose Art. His book includes cabooses bearing road names from A to Z. He was showing me his copy and explaining what it entailed. 

I was glad to see that he had made a return to York, as he told me a few years ago that he was getting on in age, and the trip from Long Island was very tiring. He seemed like his usual self, so one never knows when the next crisis will happen. My thoughts and prayers go out to George and his family, and I hope the medical staff responsible for his care can satisfactorily manage his condition. I seem to recall George saying he was 83, or going to turn 83 shortly.
