- George
Swain was known as "Walking, Talking George" in his home town of
Boron, California, where he worked as a chemist at the Borax plant
for 44 years.
|
- George had three passions, John Muir, conservation, and classical
music. He was a member of the John Muir Memorial Association for over
25 years, and attended every annual dinner. He was an outgoing person,
who made friends easily, even though he did not fit the common mold.
He had no car; but took the train everywhere he went.
|
- As long time friend Pat Mosley, said, "George was truly a character
and those of us who knew him can only say it was a pleasure to have
known him and all the joy he brought to our ordinary lives." For
