He put up a brave fight for several years after being diagnosed with Dementia. He was born in Detroit, MI to the late George and Irene (Reilly) Molesworth.

They had many wonderful years together until Sharron passed in 2008. They had two children, George and LeAnne. They started their own Real Estate Company called “NorthWest Realty” in Baldwin, MI.
George loved to hunt and feed his deer, building and fixing things. He was always busy fixing something! George will be remembered by his family as a Strong and tough Man! He loved his family and you always knew he had your back! Some of the family’s fondest memories are rodeos and our horses, camping trips, hunting with him, fishing, working on his tractor, week stays as kids, his pet raccoon, his grandson, Chris feeding his dog pennies which didn’t make him happy, and all of his great, long stories of his life on the farm, being in the Army, and meeting the Love of his life, our wonderful mom and grandma! Most of all we will remember him teaching us to be honorable, honest, and hard working people just like he was!

I was Big G’s (As I called him) hospice volunteer from NOCH. I only was able to visit with Big G and talk about projects he did and about how some of the specific nurses at the Hospice House were plotting to date certain doctors. Big G was also a great reader of people. Covid showed up and I was cut off from seeing my Big G!
My Dad went through the same situation Big G experienced. It is not easy on the person nor on the family so remember the great times you all had with da man!!
He is at peace and I imagine in some woods, watching the deer, and trying to decide – “now is that one stealing too much food?…hmmmm”
Cheers and let the memories live on

So sorry to hear about George. I have a million memories of him as a friend and real estate salesman. He will be greatly missed.
