George Soliday Orton

West Point, 1949

Be Thou At Peace

Posted by Joan H. Orton on October 3, 2010:

He was the man who made my life safe and I will always love him. To the classmates who always step in to help out, thank you for being there for me and my children. George was a wonderful man. He would thank you also if he could, for I know he holds us all in his heart.

He had spent so many hours in pain during his life. I was with him until the moment he died and even through that he was so brave.

Thanks to all of you, Joan
