He was born November 11, 1924 in Berlin, New Hampshire to Mikhail and Julianna (Baronkay) Grigel, immigrants from Czechoslovakia. George attended Catholic schools in Berlin, and graduated from Berlin High School in 1943. He immediately joined the war effort and enlisted in the 10th Mountain Division (Alpine) on June 22nd of 1943. This unit was to become the famous first cold weather mountain infantry division of the US Army. He became a Sergeant and served in the 710th Ordnance Company of the Tenth, training in Colorado and joining the Italian campaign as a Field Armorer with special expertise in the 110mm Howitzer and Browning Automatic Rifle. George married Doris Derosier of Berlin, NH in 1948, and began his employment with Swift & Co. Premium Meats at their Berlin, NH location. He worked as a salesman until he was transferred to the White River Junction plant in 1953. He was Plant Superintendent for Swift's until his retirement in 1982. George was an outdoor enthusiast and skated, skied, and walked whenever he could. George was a well known resident of Demers Avenue on Taft Flats in White River Junction for 51 years. He was acknowledged by all as a story teller and a man who was proud of his ability to talk to "anybody, anywhere, anytime, about anything". He was active at St. Anthony's Church as an usher and in organizing many barbeques and church events. He was an avid gardener who supplied tomatoes to all who stopped by. As a sportsman he was a masterful fly-fisherman and hunter. When his family was young and there were many children on the street, he was the bicycle, skate, ski and general handyman. He flooded rinks in freezing temps so kids could enjoy the winter skating as he did as a kid. He was also famous for his military ‘buzz cuts' which he gladly supplied free of charge to all the boys. For many of his later years he was proud of decorating the neighborhood at Christmas time. George was a well respected and widely admired man who was known as a benefactor to all. He loved his wife and children, and will be missed and fondly remembered by all who knew him.
