George Hilton Poole, 89, a loving, devoted Christian husband, father and grandfather entered his heavenly home Friday, Dec 5, 2014.
A blessing to all he met, George was the definition of unconditional love. His sweet, fun loving spirit will live on in all those who had the pleasure of knowing him.
Armed with his sweet smile and a laugh to share, George never met a stranger and enjoyed nothing more than sharing his deep love of The Lord. "Daddy" was the patriarch of the family and built a strong legacy that will continue on for generations to come. His family will cherish the precious memories of their beloved "Daddy" and "Granddaddy" for the rest of their lives.
George was born to the late Roney and Marie Poole on January 23, 1925. He was a proud Navy Veteran and served on the USS Randolph in World War II. After retiring from the state, he became a successful businessman, building three local stores. George was proud of the life he built but his greatest pride has always been the love he has for the Lord and his precious family.
Survivors include his wife of 67 wonderful years; his two children of Greer, SC and of DeBary, FL; seven grandchildren.
He was preceded in death by his beloved daughter Krissie Degnan, two brothers, and a sister.
A service to honor his life will be held at 2 p.m. Tuesday in the Elmore-Cannon-Stephens Funeral Home Chapel with the Rev Charles Clanton officiating. Burial will be in the Evergreen Memorial Park Cemetery.
