They called him “Poppy”, “Big George”, “Dad”, “Grandpa”, even “Great Grandpa”. George Werling will be remembered as a true patriarch. He died at the age of 77, much too early for any of his family and friends. His son said “he always believed in himself and that helped him get through anything.” He was the beloved husband of Mary (nee Brennan); dear father of George Werling (Joni), Timothy Werling, Laurie Zoerner (Mark), Heidi McIntyre (Bernie), Lisa Mitchell (Mark), Jill Quinn (George), Thomas Werling (Kathleen), Becky Uszak (Mike) and the late twin daughters. He was the grandfather of 22 and the great-grandfather of three. He was the founder of the Cathedral Latin Alumni Association and President of Future Planning Agency. He will be missed by so many but certainly never leave their memories. Goodbye, George…
