He adored all animals and enjoyed watching his dogs play amongst his grandchildren. He also loved weekly bowling and karaoke adventures. George will be greatly missed by his surviving friends and family, including his sister, Sue; his widow, Gail; her children Lynne and David (Kayo); and his children, Stacy (Tony) and Damon (Nathalie), as well as grandchildren, Haley, Evan, Lauren, Audrey, Blake, Zora, and Romare.<\/p>\n<p>A private service will be held at the San Jose Buddhist Church Betsuin.
