George was born April 7, 1939 in Saginaw, son of the late Frank and Wilma (Kasch) Livingston. He grew up in Saginaw and graduated from Saginaw High School in 1957.

George, being my older cousin, was always thoughtful and made me feel special at family gatherings. He carried this through our adult lives. One memorable moment was seeing him in a restaurant. He was sitting with all men and when he saw me he jumped up and gave me a kiss on the cheek and said; this is my kissing cousin. He loved family and as many times as we could we would meet for lunch and talk about family past and present. We had our faith in common along with his sister Kay and I know that George is in heaven with his Savior, Jesus. I will miss him and I know his immediate family and nieces and nephews will also. I’m praying for you, family of George, that you will follow in his faith in God, his kindness toward others and that God’s peace will be with you . Love, to his family and all my cousins, Helen Miller
