George Matthew Saad II passed into the hands of the Lord on Friday, November 30, 2012. He was born August 9th, 1929 in Detroit, MI, the son of George Matthew Saad and Hester Inez Compton.
He was a terrific husband and father, a loving and generous man, with great compassion for others. He was full of joy, and his smile was contagious. George believed very strongly in the value of higher education, and maintained close ties with the University of Notre Dame throughout his life. The University was a source of great pride and joy for him, as was the formal education of his children and grandchildren. His education there provided the foundation of his Christianity, and provided the basis for the way he always treated others - with compassion and love.
