Lost a friend a few weeks ago.

[Bill Seward]

Anyone who rode a motorcycle from the Buffalo NY area over the last 50 years knew, or knew of Don George. He sold me my first Yamaha, an RD350 back in February of 1973. He passed away last month, 50 years to the day after I bought the RD from him. He was a good man, and a great friend. He supported local charities, and was the sponsor of the annual Fun Run for Cancer research. I was the guy who wrote the routes for the run over the years, we raised hundreds of thousands of dollars at these events.

His dealership is closed now, and I'm just realizing how much I miss the hours spent there, just hanging out, and the time spent with Don and his family.

Godspeed, my friend.

Being from that area, I never heard of the man. But sounds like he was one hell of a man. RIP

His dealership was Don George's Sports Center. It was located in Clarence NY
