He and his twin sister (June) were born on May 3, 1935, to Burton Armstrong and Bessie (Daniels) Armstrong in Barnett/Eldon, Missouri. His family moved from Eldon, Missouri, to Daniels Gardens, Colorado, where he lived until the age of 13, when he moved to Marshalltown, Iowa, with his father. In March of 1953 he enlisted into the Marine Corp, in Des Moines, Iowa, and was stationed at Camp Pendleton in California. Cpl. G. Armstrong was a camp cook where he met a fellow Marine, Jim Newman, with whom he kept in contact. He was honorably discharged in March of 1956. During time served he earned the Korean Service Medal, the Good Conduct Medal, National Defense Service Medal, and the United Nations Service Medal. On September 7, 1957, he married Judith A. Spencer, in Marshalltown. Together they had a daughter Susie May, a son Larry Armstrong, and foster child Cindy Menter. Gean worked at Lennox Foundry until it closed, later he worked as a mechanic, baker, concrete laborer, and the Chicago Northwestern Railroad. Gean was a dedicated family man and there was nothing that he would not do for them (this included his extended family). If your vehicle was not running well he could tell what was wrong with it by just listening to it. There was nothing that he could not fix one way or another. He transformed a school bus into the family camper, remodeled his family home, kept the appliances operating (not just theirs but other family members as well), remodeled the vacation lake house, played the guitar, and sang. But the most important thing he accomplished was a legacy of doing for others, going the extra mile for them. He was a good son, brother, husband, father, uncle, grandfather, great-grandfather, and friend. He is survived by his wife and best friend Judy; son Larry (Dawn) Armstrong; grandsons, Brandon Armstrong, Trevor (Andrea) Armstrong, and Nick (Erica) Bushinger; four great-grandchildren, Alice, Liliana, Kirsten, and Nick; one brother; four sisters; and several nieces and nephews. He was preceded in death by his daughter Susie, foster daughter Cindy, one sister, and two brothers.
