George Thomas Grubb

Grubb, George2ARGYLE – George Thomas Grubb, 66, of Argyle, passed away Thursday February 2, 2017, at Glens Falls Hospital, surrounded by his loving family, after a long illness.

George was born November 16,1950, in Abington, PA, to the late Charles and Helen (Kirby) Grubb.  He attended Lansdale Catholic High School and was an all-star baseball player, playing from the time he was a little boy until his mid-twenties. George loved sports and if he wasn’t playing them he was watching them. In 1978 his journey took him to Las Vegas, where he worked for Young’s Masonry, building miles and miles of block walls. In 1989, he moved to South Glens Falls and continued his career with Bast Hatfield. George was a man of many talents and his sense of humor was unlike any other. He lived his life to the fullest and that made for some funny stories to share. You could hear the same stories again and again and still laugh with him about them. He had a long list of sayings and phrases that he used wittily.

George enjoyed betting the horses, football pools, and watching any sport that was playing on TV, with his friends in Argyle. He loved phone calls from his family and cherished every moment spent with his children, grandchildren, and great grandchildren. He made sure his family knew how much he loved them and will be greatly missed by all who knew him.

George is predeceased by his parents, Charles and Helen (Kirby) Grubb.

He is survived by his four children, George Grubb of Lake Tahoe, CA, Heather Grubb of Las Vegas, NV, Robert Grubb of Hudson Falls, and Rachael Grubb of Queensbury; his grandchildren, Jamilyn, Dylan, Jacob, Chloe, and Lucas; his great-granddaughters, Gwendolyn and Clementine; his brother, James (Jimmy) Grubb; and sisters, Peggy Flaherty, Barbara Bartlett, and Joanne Grubb; several nieces and nephews and many friends.
