SBYNews Contributor George Chevallier Passed Away Today 3-3-16

This is a day and a man I will never forget. George Chevallier was by far one of the kindest, giving men I have ever had the honor to call my friend. 

George was a historian here on the Shore and delivered literally hundreds of weekly articles we've had the pleasure to publish and look forward to. 

We will deliver all of the important arrangements just as soon as they become available. Rest in Peace my dear friend and thank you so very much for everything.

May be corny but I just checked March 3rd in US History and found:

In 1931 "Star Spangled Banner" officially becomes US national anthem by congressional resolution.

May his story live on in our hearts and those that love history as much as he did.

A true genuine gentleman. An asset to our community. He will surely be missed by all that knew him and especially those of us that read and appreciated his articles here on Salisbury News. His family is in my thoughts and prayers.

Dave and I went to school with George. I spoke with him on several occasions and we spoke of the history of this wonderful area and looked forward to what it could be once again under great leadership. He will be missed.

Years ago I sold George 2 cars, friend for life since then. Always a smile and a great guy to pick his brain for historical value. Good man, someone to emulate.
