I never met George Eberhart but I live in the same apartment complex that his daughter Jean and her husband Bill reside and have had the pleasure of visiting with both of them and enjoying their 2 dogs Grasey and Jake. Jean and Bill related some of the history of George's long life when we talked at Prairie Commons.
