You were a great student to teach in 2017 in Digital Literacy, but after then, you never forgot to say hello or check in. Your kindness meant the world to me. Prayers for the comfort of your dad, your family, and all your friends. Eternal rest grant unto them, O Lord, and let perpetual light shine upon them. May their souls and the souls of...

Discussing classwork and future college plans with George was always a pleasure. In my 46 years at Archbishop Ryan he was one of the nicest young men I ever interacted with in the classroom or Guidance office. He will be one of God’s special angels.
Kenny Welch I wish everyone could have had a friend like George. Your personality and sense of humor were truly one of a kind & I am so thankful for all of the memories that we made. May you land in the arms of your mom, rest easy brother❤️
It didn’t matter if I was having a bad day or didn’t feel good, George always put a smile on my face. He could cheer you up no matter what the situation was. I am going to miss him with my whole heart. It still doesn’t feel real to me. ILMOGK💙🕊
I will remember George from Period 2 Business Law class, 2018 - 2019. And I will remember how much he liked watching law videos and taking part in Lollipop Days. My heart and soul is so sad right now.
I didn’t really know George that well, but everytime I passed him in PACS’ hallway, he always had a smile on his face. I remember George always being surrounded by so many of his friends; making them laugh on the way to their next class. I don’t go to PACS anymore, but I know that if I did, it would NEVER be the same. Fly high bro, you will be trul...
Jill Henon Forever in our hearts!!❤
Colleen Sakaitis I have had the pleasure of meeting Georgie and his family at PACS when the boys were in 1st grade. Shane and Georgie were great friends and teammates all through grade school and remained good friends all through their days at Archbishop Ryan. Words cant not express how heartbreaken we are. We are praying for his dad and whole family. He will truly be missed. RIP ❤
Meghan Cahill 💙💙We love you Georgie, so many great memories these boys have had together.
Pat Hasson Been with you for so long Georgie thank you for everything.
I miss our days back in Ms. Devlins when you would always make us laugh and make anyone who was feeling down feel better. Love you George
Kendal Higgins George never failed to put a Smile on My face, the first time I met George was 3rd lunch freshman year from that day on me and George became best friends and promised each other no matter what we would always be there for each other. George made me a better person, helped me through all my hard times and always made me happy no matter the situation. I am definitely gonna miss his crazy, outgoing and loving personality especially when he always danced to This is America. He will be missed greatly❤️❤️
Mary Lynn Farinella Georgie, you will be missed by so many! You're an amazing young man and a terrific friend to so many! You will never be forgotten! We Are AR! Class of 2020! ❤️🖤
George always made me laugh, one of the best guys I knew. Truly gone too soon. Praying for everyone affected. I'll never forget you George this is heartbreaking...
To my dearest family, some things I'd like to say... but first of all, to let you know, that I arrived okay. I'm writing this from heaven. Here I dwell with God above. Here, there's no more tears of sadness; here is just eternal love. Please do not be unhappy just because I'm out of sight. Remember that I'm with you every morning, noon and night. T...
Jenn Collier I will always remember your encouraging attitude on the football field. You were always building your teammates up. You did your job on the field and you did it well...even when you had to tackle. Who would have thought that our kicker would have just as many tackles than any other player (lol). I still feel guilty about missing the shot of when you threw that beautiful pass this season during the trick play and how bummed out you were because I didn't get it. You were so gracious and quickly forgave me. I am thankful I have so many pictures of you throughout the years so I can forever remember what a great player you were, a great friend and an overall great person. We will miss you Georgie! ❤️
George, Your kind and compassionate heart, your ability to make others laugh , your boundless Ryan Pride & Team Spirit, your loyalty and faithfulness to friends and teammates, and the genuineness of your calm reassuring smile....these gifts you shared so often are the timeless and cherished legacy that you leave in our hearts and memory forever.
Shayne Glenn George, you were the nicest kid ever. I remember being so close with you in grade school and I was so excited for you to come to Ryan. On and off that soccer field I knew I could always count on you. Your smile always lit up the room and you will be missed. Fly high buddy
Doesn’t feel real gonna miss him he was the life of the party always making jokes and making people laugh, when ever I was having a bad day he would always make me laugh and cheer me up LLGK❤️🕊 love you brother
michael Cahill Love you forever Georgie Rest In Peace
Gone from our sight, but never from our hearts.

Our first memory of Georgie was when our daughter Sheila told us that our granddaughter Samantha had a boyfriend Cecilia and I said to ourselves that we thought Sam was to young to have a boyfriend but then Sam introduced us and said his name was George right away we said with a name like George he has to be a Great Guy for you see my son and his s...
George was one of the best people that I have ever known. He always made me smile and laugh without even trying. I never got the chance to tell him this, but I loved him. He made my family so happy, especially my sister. My favorite memory of him is playing brawl stars together. He made me get the game because Sam went out to get food and we had no...
Sheila McCurry This post from my son, Michael
Sheila McCurry I remember when Samantha first started dating George and my mom friends would tell me what a sweet boy he was and great family! Well, it didn’t take long for Mike and I to find out how true that was. My favorite memory is watching how happy my entire family was when George came over and even with our parents, cousins, aunts, and uncles. We loved when he came over for dinner. He would makes us all laugh. I loved making him his favorite mac n cheese! The extra chair at our kitchen table became his. The picture attached is the last picture I took of George having a great time playing games with my children! George treated my daughter like a princess on a pedestal. He made her beyond happy. I still remember the day she showed me the necklace he got her that said I love you in a 1,000 different languages. She had the biggest smile on her face showing me. She was glowing! He became a big brother to my other children, Jessica and Michael. I know he is hugging his mom right now. I can’t put into words how much we will miss you, George Karusky - G4! YOU will be FOREVER IN OUR HEARTS! WE LOVE YOU SO MUCH, George! ❤️
George was a great kid. An Excellent kicker and punter. He showed his athletic ability last year the way he handled the snaps and was a true weapon on coverages. He talked extremely well, hit as hard as any of the Raiders. Could have been a linebacker. Our prayers are with you George and your family. Rest in Peace. You will be missed.
George, we so enjoyed working with you through the college application process in the Guidance office. Your kindness and good nature was much appreciated! In every sense of the word, you personified a true Gentle-man. Peace, Mrs. Abernethy
Michael McGuire I love you brother, I just wish we could have one last conversation and hug before you went back to your mom, I’d be selfish to say i’m not happy that you are with your mother, I know how much you missed her we texted about her almost everyday, we’re all going to miss you Georgie so please guide us and the rest of the boys towards safety, I’m still texting your number hoping that you somehow beat the impossible and could text me back but that isn’t the case, I love you Georgie and you’ll be missed by everyone brotha❤️
The below is from my husband, Mike. The first time I met George, he and Sam had only been seeing each other for a short time. They came walking down my street after a night out. I happened to be sitting on the front step alone and Sam says “hi dad this is George, is there anyway you can give him a ride home?” We shook hands and he introduced hims...
