George L. Lawson

George L. Lawson of Lewiston, NY passed away peacefully on Friday, August 1, 2025, at Our Lady of Peace Nursing Facility. He was 89.

Born in Roodhouse, Illinois, George was the son of Charles H. and Alma E. (née Riley) Lawson. He married his beloved wife, Sharon L. Dunlap, on August 16, 1955, in Roodhouse, Illinois—a partnership that grew into 70 devoted years of love, family and adventure.

George proudly served 20 years in the United States Air Force, retiring in 1975 after distinguished service that included serving during Vietnam. He went on to work as an electronic technician for the General Services Administration, retiring in 1991. Together, he and Sharon enjoyed two decades of winter retreats in Florida, embracing both the sunshine and the serenity.

A longtime member of Lewiston Kiwanis, George was deeply engaged in his community. He was an avid bowler and loved the thrill of casino visits, savoring life's simple pleasures with an ever-present smile and spirit of camaraderie.

In addition to his parents, George was predeceased by 10 siblings. He is survived by his loving wife, Sharon L. Lawson; his children, Bruce (Kerry) Lawson, Leslie (Kenneth) Singley, and Tracy Lawson; grandchildren, Ian (Alison) Tweedie, Christopher (Susan) Lawson, and Kelly (Dennis) Sincebaugh; and nine cherished great-grandchildren. He is also survived by his caring brother, John (Doris) Lawson; sister-in-law, Mary Ann (Lee) Snodgrass; brothers-in-law, Robert Epps and Frank Huff; and many nieces and nephews, all of whom will carry forward the warmth of his memory.
