Chris – I am so sorry about George and that we were not at the service.  We didn’t get the notification until afterwards, but I want you  to know that you are in our thoughts and prayers.  We always enjoyed those times talking on the porch. George was such a great guy.

Dear Cris and family, In the short time that we have known you and George at the Mennonite Home, we have grown so fond of all of you, and of course, George, with his endearing smile. He was a wonderful man. May you find comfort at this difficult time. If there is anything we can do, feel free to call. We miss you all.

Dear Mr.Resh, I know that your kind, caring, fun spirit lives on. I met you when I became the German teacher at McCaskey, after Frau Wolf,s retirement. It was so honored to work with you on AFS club activities. I will never forget the lovely afternoon at Long Level where you introduced us to sailing on the Susquehanna. Thank you, much love to your family. Erika Miller

I’d like to take this moment and extend my condolences to the Resh family.  Coach Resh was much more than a sprint coach to us at McCaskey.  He looked at us as young people that were about to enter the world.  He spoke to us about life and the responsibilities that we had as young men.  The medals and records that I achieved, were because of him.  The lessons that I learned about off the track, were because of him.  I want to thank the Resh family for allowing him to be an influence in my life.  Keeping you in my prayers.

Dear Chris and family,
The news of George’s passing have been devastating to us, as I am sure for you along with great sorrow. Tony and I began to remember all those times we were together with the Honor Guard and the time we travel together. Those memories will always be with us.
I pray that God grants you strength to bear this sorrow along with your family. 
We are hoping that we can attend the service for George, as I am recuperating from my knee replacement from 4 weeks ago. 
Please know that we are always thinking of you. God bless and keep you and your family as you walk this hard path.
With Love, Dina and Tony Cerase

My condolences to the Resh family.  I had the privilege of being around Coach Resh, because he was my sprint coach in high school from ’88-90′.  His hard work ethic and sterness reminded me a lot of my father’s ways, so I appreciated that.  He made sure we worked hard as well and reaped the benefits of success from it.  It was so nice to then see Coach Resh later, while he was officiating and then I was coaching.  I always had tremendous respect for Coach Resh and must say he’s a big part of me loving my passion for coaching my students.  Blessings to you all and know that he definitely made a positive impact in this world!  Sincerely,  Jill Cypress

I was a student of Mr. Resh in 6th grade at George Washington Elementary School on South Ann Street.
 
I live and am registered to vote in an East Hempfield location where Mr. Resh worked the poles for many years.
 

May the family find solace
in his life well lived.

George seemed tireless in his support for the Lancaster Chapter Military Officers Association of America (MOAA).  He was consistantly in leadership positions serving as treasurer, multiple terms as director and twice as president. He was deeply involved in community service activities visiting local schools and in managing the chapter’s secondary education scholarship program. His service to the nation and to the community have been exceptional. I am proud to have known him.

I crossed paths twice with Mr. Resh.  I was a student in his aviation class back in 1992.  It was my absolute favorite class as we got to spend a day flying Cesnas at the Lancaster Airport at the end of the semester.  I remember his genuine love of aircrafts showed each and every day in class.  Many years later, our paths crossed again as I met with him to plan Veterans Day activities with my students in the Hempfield School District.  He showed the same enthusiasm as I remembered as he shared his experiences in the US Air Force with the students at my school.  What an awesome life this extraordinary person lived!!!  May his memory be eternal.

There was never a better man or friend than this man. He was a great Father to his girls and I enjoyed many times in his company listening to stories and learning from his wisdom.
I wish you all peace at this time knowing he is in a better place sitting in his place in Heaven that was waiting for him. God Bless.  Keith & Amanda Tomlinson
