George Bright, 89, returned to the Lord, is dancing with his wife, and got his memory back!

After many years of battling Alzheimer’s Disease, George was made whole again. George was the quintessential “pal,” happy to converse over coffee or a cold beer with just about anyone. He was spunky, ornery, and cherished.

He is survived by his two daughters, Sharon Tabuchi and Karen Montgomery (Ford), as well as his 6 grandchildren and 6 great-grandchildren.

George was a member of the men’s group TGIW where he prided himself on near perfect attendance. He was also a long time member of the Elks Lodge where he served in many roles, most notably as Grand Poobah.

 A celebration of life will be held at 2 p.m. on August 18 at Martin Luther Lutheran Church located at 1200 SW Blue Parkway in Lee’s Summit. In memory of George, flowers may be sent to the church or donations may be sent to the Alzheimer’s Association.

George will be profoundly missed, but we rejoice in knowing George remembers what a wonderful life he led.
