George was a big man in several ways. He was certainly large physically, but also intellectually and in his concern for others. I have only fond memories of the time I was fortunate to spend with him. The brotherhood of former Amtrak employees is diminished by his passing.

Thanks to Scouting I got to share some time with George ("shorty" in some boy scout circles) over the past couple decades. What I will always remember him for was helping me solve a problem with my dad's railroad retirement. I called him to get some advice and within hours I had a call from the retirement folks to correct everything. helpful! the third point the Scout law. I am sorry to hear of this loss to his family and all who knew him. We will all miss him.

Dear Binns Family,
It was with deep sorrow that I recently learned of the passing of George. I know that words are inadequate at a time like this, but I wanted you to know how very sorry I am for your loss. No words are enough to express the void that has been created by the loss of such a wonderful person who was not only important to all of you but also to his extended industry family. Please accept my most heartfelt sympathies. God bless and comfort you.

My sincere condolences. George was a fine man and a good friend. I was fortunate to have worked with George in the railroad industry off and on for nearly 40 years. We'll miss him. Prayers of comfort for the family.

I am terribly saddened to hear of George's passing. George took a chance on hiring me into Amtrak and gave me my start in the railroad industry. I still remember my first interview with him and his big laugh! He was a great mentor and supervisor. I am extremely fortunate to have had him as a guide through the early years of my career. My deepest condolences to the Binns Family.

Beverly,
Lois and I grieve with you. Your loss is great, but our God is greater still. I pray the "peace of God which passeth all understanding", "and the God of all comfort" will be your fortress in the weeks and months ahead. I worked for George in the 1990's while at Amtrak. He was the best boss I ever worked for.; but more than a boss, he was a friend. I miss that Jolly Old Saint Nick laugh of his. Always the optimist, even in the face of losing his beloved young daughter, he was always a joy and encouragement to be near.

Dear Bev & Austin,
We are so sorry and saddened to hear about George's passing. George was such a kind, gracious, genuine person... and always smiling. Although we lost touch over the years, Sean and I will cherish all of the memories we made together at Radnor and other events and will never forget George's warm smile and zest for life.
