George was such an awesome man,
the day I walked into his tax business I was going through so much and he made sure I felt like family. I have refered almost anyone seeking a tax person to go to cause I was always sure " the tax man" would do all he could to provide the best service. I wish I was living in the state during his passing I surely would've attended the services. Thanks so much Mr. George for everything! I send my deepest condolences to the family.

I was very saddened to hear about George. I feel as though I have lost a friend. George and I only knew each other through our once yearly encounter. For whatever reason George always seemed genuinely happy to see me and I was always made to feel like something more than just a client. Our appointments always started with a little catching up over the personal events and happenings in the last year of our lives. I was always impressed by his level of interest and concern and touched by the fact that he remembered my family's trials and tribulations from year to year. George wore his love for his family on his sleeve. He was very proud of all and really kind of beamed when he spoke of them. George's office and staff are like a reflection of George himself. I will miss him. Strangely enough, I was out to dinner tonight and told my wife "I've got to make an appointment to see George," No last name necessary. Much to my dismay, after arriving home my wife got the news online. My deepest condolences to all of George's family and friends. I will always consider myself lucky to have known him. God Bless

Not many people can say they looked forward to getting their taxes done, I did. For 20 years I would come in and sit with George and we would talk about our kids and our lives. It was always as if I had seen him the day before. Very few people come around in a persons life that brings joy, happiness and puts a smile on your face like George could. I for one will miss him. My condolences to his boys. and the rest of his family

Our family is shocked James and Michael as is yours. George was and will always be remembered as a wonderful friend and a caring person. His warm welcoming personality was a rare trait. Smart and humorous that broad smile was his disarming personality. He had many clients but more friends. Rest In Peace my friend.

I felt my heart break into pieces when I heard about the sudden death of George. He was a great person, and always willing to help. He took me under his wings and gave me great advice on life and taxes. I have so many fond memories of George, and he will truly be missed.
James and Michael, let the memories of your father's life provide you with the comfort you need during this challenging time. He was so proud of the both of you and his life was rich because of it.
To James, Michael, the Carapella Family, and the entire staff at Taxman, you have my very sincere and heartfelt sympathy.
My condolences,

Cuz,
My heart is broken and my mind's in shock ! Once again our family loses a truly beloved member way too soon and unexpected. I know too well the pain your beautiful boys, sisters and brother are feeling. I also know the many people and family members lives touched in a positive way with the love only you possessed. I'm sure you are in heaven hearing their words, feeling their love and knowing that we all look forward to being together once again one day with you. As we say in our family: "And that's a beautiful thing". I will miss you my amazing cousin, but you like my brother Kelly will be alive in the stories, the music, our memories, the love of family and the unbelievable legacy you have left. So kick up the clouds and kiss and hug my baby bro and all our family. Till we meet again, I'll miss and love you always.
Your Cousin, Margo, Paul & my babies.

Our deepest heartfelt sympathy on your passing George! I cant say enuf, but know that u would say go get a mani pedi GraceAnn — everything’s gonna be alright! The Cianciottas and the Mundricks are shocked and so so saddened by your loss. Way too soon but somehow God’s plan on angels wings. Your gift of an exuberant positive personality and that winning smile and laughter left us feeling like we just had cake and coffee for the last 2 hrs in your office reminiscing about our youth and nearly 50 years of friendship with you and your family. We always forgot why we came! Finally we would get to the car and Henry and I looking at each other saying we gotta call him back next week! So good seeing him! Despite whatever the issue was, as you were so entrenched in our entire family’s dynamic— We always appreciated the time we spent with you. We will miss you very very much! Rest in Peace my friend! George, you and your family always will be in our hearts and prayers!

You were such a loving and kind man who helped not only my family when they were in need but to everyone who knew you. This world needs more people like you why you were taken from us I will never understand. You were always an amazing man who helped Ging and I every year and I loved doing our taxes because I got to talk and laugh with you for a short time. You were such an inspiration and I left your office always feeling energized about everything we spoke about which was mostly about having an easier and smoother life which then brought happiness and success. Ging and I are devastated that we had to give up a friend who was truly a beautiful part of our lives and hearts. RIP George know that we love you and will deeply miss you our friend... until we meet again in Paradise Love You Ging and Linda XOXO
