In Loving Memory of
George Arlington Hassell
Sunrise: August 25, 1943 – Sunset: September 8, 2026
It is with deep sorrow, yet profoundly grateful for everything he meant to us, we announce the passing of our beloved
husband, father, grandfather, brother, uncle, and friend.
“Even youths grow tired and weary, and young men stumble and fall; but those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary; they will walk and not be faint.” — Isaiah 40:30–31
He now rests in the green pastures of peace, having caught the wind on his final, soaring ascent flying triumphantly home.
