George R. Gentsch

George R. Gentsch of Churchville died suddenly on Friday, October 11, 2019 at his residence.  He was 84.

George was the beloved husband of the late Mary L. Dougherty Gentsch.

Born in Philadelphia, he was the son of the late George and Helen Zakowski Gentsch.

George led a long career as a machinist for Eaton, Yale, & Town.  In his spare time he enjoyed fishing, playing the guitar and was often the DJ of the Party, spinning his extensive collection of ’45 records.  George was easy going and enjoyed a good time and loved dancing.  Most of all he was fiercely devoted to his family and enjoyed having a good laugh, surrounded by those he loved. 

George is survived by his loving and devoted children: Kenneth of Southampton, PA, Dennis Gentsch (Victoria) of Churchville, Cindy Prutzman (Arthur) of Feasterville, Sandy Dougherty (James) of Philadelphia, and Gregory of Churchville.  He is also survived by his 13 grandchildren and two great grand-children.
