George was born Dec. 18, 1955, in Presque Isle to Lemuel and Elza (Hanson) Osgood. He was raised on a potato farm in Easton with his siblings Veronica Terrell, Virginia White and Walter Osgood.

George was a highly skilled machinist who took tremendous pride in his work and meticulously maintained his machines and tooling.

George was an excellent cook. He liked spending the day outside grilling; spatula in one hand and a cold beer in the other. George loved to share his cooking with friends and family. Good times were always had in George’s company. He had a magnetic personality and an infectious smile. He loved to reminisce with friends and always had a good joke to share, and even shared some not so good jokes. George was always there to lend a hand or help a friend. He truly had an amazing group of treasured friends.

George was an avid motorcycle enthusiast who felt at home on the open road. His happiest times were on his cherished ’93 Harley Davidson with his wife Priscilla. George took pride in keeping his vehicles immaculate, especially his motorcycle.
