George J. Sheets, 83, of Morey Park passed away on January 12, 2023, at Albany Medical Center just 13 days after his loving wife of 62 years Irma left this world.

He was a United States Army Veteran, a member of the Chandler-Young Veterans Association in Nassau and a lifetime member of the Nassau Sportsmen’s Club.


George enjoyed deer hunting, camping, and gardening but most of all loved his John Deer tractor and could often be seen driving it down Morey Park Road. He also enjoyed cooking for family and friends, and everyone loved his spaghetti sauce.

He is also survived by nine great-grandchildren. In addition to his wife and parents he was predeceased by his siblings, Alice Bay, Marylou Straub, Emily Olson, Donna Deuel and Bill Brooks.
