George is well known in this community... from restaurants to the classroom... George has touched many lives in Aspen. George came to Aspen in 1970 after taking a break from teaching middle school math in CA. Like many do... he came for a winter and has really never left. He took a few years off from living here to explore Hawaii and Park City, but he returned. George spent many years making sure bellies were full and customers were happy at his restaurants on Highlands! After 22 years, he hung up his hat as a restaurant owner and went back to his first career. He taught math part time at AES until he decided to spend more time with his family and his other passion, fly fishing! George and his wife have 2 children that grew up here as well. George volunteers for Read with Me because he enjoys the kids, he loves reading and he gets excited about seeing the progress in the kids he reads with! George has volunteered two times a week for three years. His quiet and sincere demeanor is greatly appreciated and kids love working with him! Thank you George for your time commitment to our program!
