He served as a Captain in the Army Reserves until 1969.

In 1970, George joined his brother Frank at Inman Constructi­on in Memphis, Tennessee. After falling in love with the Texas Hill Country, George built his dream home in Fredericks­burg after retiring from commercial constructi­on in 1991. While caring for his “herd” of longhorns, working for local wineries and playing golf were favorite pastimes, even taking home the Farmington Golf Club Championsh­ip in 1974, in Germantown, TN, he was also dedicated to supporting the Fredericks­burg community. He proudly served on the Fredericks­burg ISD School Board and was a consultant during the building of the Hill Country Memorial Hospital expansion.
