George Blair Has Passed Away
Our good friend and member, Lt. Colonel George Blair passed this life on January 19, 2013. You will remember George as the friendly guy who partnered with Jerry Smith at the Southern Side by Side, the Northeast Side by Side, the Fall Southern, and the Maryland Arms Collectors Show at Baltimore. He was an avid waterfowl hunter, Parker collector, and was OIC of the Army Reserve USA and International Pistol Teams. George and I were classmates at Richard Montgomery High School in Rockville, Maryland and renewed our friendship years ago through the PGCA. George, Jerry, and I are neighbors in adjoining towns here in Maryland. His impressive obituary is posted on staufferfuneralhome.com, and includes a picture of George for those who don't know him. I just got the call from Jerry early this morning and am headed out the door on a mission, so will post more later.
