Born to Fred and Ruth Billerbeck January 30,1931, in Jacksonville, Florida, and was called to be with our Lord Jesus Christ, August 22,2018. 'Love of God, Love of family, and Love of country' were the values George lived by.  He graduated from the U.S. Naval Academy June 4th, 1954, and served his country faithfully as an officer for 26 years.  On July 16,1960, he and Carolyn Curtis were united in marriage: a union that continued for 58 years.  They were blessed with twin sons and a daughter.  Following his naval career he worked as a successful real estate appraiser for the VA until his retirement at age 75.  He was a loving husband, father, and grandfather and his kind demeanor will be missed by all.  He is survived by wife Carolyn, son David, daughter Heidi(Forrest), and grandchildren Brooke, Austin, and Curtis.
