George was my cousin and was one of the funniest guys I've met. He also was one of the shrewdest businesspeople. I'll miss his personality. Condolences to Barbara and the rest of the family. You will be missed, George.

My deepest condolences to the Spaniak family. I met George in 1986 and he was always there if I needed his advice and his humor always made me smile. He was a man of integrity and he will be missed!

George was highly regarded as a businessman. He was among my friends in the futures industry who date back to the Chicago Open Board of Trade. My sympathies.

My very deepest sympathy to George's family at this time of sorrow. I first met George in the late 1960's, and he became the most loyal friend that one could ever hope to have. George made life worth living.

May you all find peace in this difficult time. George was a mentor to me and left a big impression on my life and career as I am sure he did to countless others. I will miss his dry wit and good business sense. God bless.
