Oh no...

That is tragic.

George had to have been one of the nicest people I have ever met.

He never failed to say hello.

God bless him.

I am so sorry.

You know thats my number one concern at every light i sit at waiting on a signal change on my bike especially. So sad to hear. Regards to the family.

I know that area quite well and many people have no regard for motorcycles. Riding in the Middletown/Walkill area is very dangerous. It’s a terrible tragedy to lose anyone needlessly because of someone else’s negligence. From all accounts Mr. Marse was a class act. May you rest in peace George.

The Mini Bike Hobby lost a good guy. George takes with him soo much Mini Bike knowledge, he was a walking encyclopedia.
I always looked for him at Mikes Hot Dog Hut, Windber, Englishtown, North Jersey Auto Show Swap Meet, etc.
He was always a gentleman, never a complainer, never said a bad word about anyone.
He will be missed.
Rest In Peace George.....

At Maple Grove swap meet, I heard him before I saw him !

Yeah, wealth of knowledge and would buy a bike just to help him get more/better parts for a project, not to flip it.
Bought my buddies Powell 7hp Phantom roller even though he had other Powell's because of the rarity of the frame and the good parts.

At Windber probably 10 years ago My wife bought an Arco frame from him that is planted in the front side of the house as yard art and he was all concerned that she know it had a weld in the neck area, and she said No George, it is just going to stay a frame for yard art which he thought was a great idea. He was just concerned that she be aware for safety sake.

So sad. Never knew him outside of minibike events and swap meets, but man, he was always happy, helpful and glad to see ya’. Taken way too early. Rest in Peace, George.

George was such a great guy. Gentle Giant. Always enjoyed seeing and talking with him at shows and swap meets. We are all going to miss him. I had this photo from 10 years ago at Windber.

Still in complete shock. It won't be the same without him. I know the Long Island Minibike Madness group is looking to do something in George's honor. I believe a swap meet later this year since George love them so much. R.I.P. buddy....

I bought my first Bonanza off George. Hent introduced me to him. I sold that bike to Brown Boonie and it has had a lot of use. I sold him an Arco tank years later. He even sent me an email about something. He was a good good guy.

 

[Street Smart]

Don`t know what to say, such a good guy. My swapmeet hangout partner.
