George Dean Prior, born July 23, 1936, in Hornell, NY, passed away peacefully on Thursday,  December 5th, in Rochester, NY. He was a dedicated husband, loving father and father-in-law,  brother to six sisters, cheerful uncle, and loyal friend to many. He loved sharing his passion for  his tractor, gardening, birding, fishing, deer hunting, and appreciating nature. He enjoyed his  world travels with his wife, Jane Prior, and savored her cooking. While his strong presence will  be missed, we know he is in a far better place now, surrounded by friends and family who  passed before him, and that lifts our heavy hearts as we honor his memory. He will always be  with us as we walk quietly through the woods. 

In place of flowers, we respectfully suggest donations in his honor be made to the Jewish  Home, which employs angels on earth who provided him with exceptional care during the final  years of his life.

  1. Nobody and I mean nobody, made me laugh harder than my Uncle George. (Two days later my gut muscles would still be sore.) He could make sad times happy and happy times euphoric. Best. Sense. Of. Humor. Ever. And the man could fix or build anything.

    Thankfully he passed both of those traits (and more) down to Andy. So I can still get a fix when needed.

    I’m beyond sad that he’s gone but so so glad I have his voice in my head and many memories in my heart.

    Hope there’s ice cream in Heaven. If not, boy are they gonna hear about it. 🪽♥️

  2. I’ll never forget all the good times up at the cabin! All those incredible deer camp breakfasts, as well as holiday meals shared with family up there. Those crazy 4th of july fireworks excursions in that little red Datsun pickup truck. Time spent building deer stands, and on and on. Thanks for the memories Uncle George!
