George Meisner Conwill
March 28, 1939 — September 30, 2011
Our beloved husband, father and friend, George Meisner Conwill (""Buster""), passed peacefully into God's hands Friday, September 30, 2011.
George was born on March 28, 1939, to Daniel Oza Conwill III and Olga Marie Meisner in Gulfport MS, where he resided most of his life. A 1957 graduate of Gulfport High, he attended the University of Mississippi, graduating in 1965 with a degree in business administration. After 11 years with the IRS, George decided to go into business for himself, becoming a very hard-working and successful CPA. He was very well liked.
He leaves behind so many broken hearts, too numerous to mention all. Most especially is his beloved wife and constant companion of 49 years, Gayle Elizabeth Clark Conwill, mother of their six children: George Geoffrey Conwill, Laurie Conwlll Sumrall (Bill), George Christopher Conwill (Veronica), Jennifer Conwill Ezelle (Ty), Celine Conwill Fortenberry (Thomas) of Charlotte, NC and George Jason Clark Conwill. Except for the aforementioned, all reside on the Mississippi Gulf Coast. George is survived also by very many beloved relatives and friends, not least of which is his dear brother and original best friend, D. O. Conwill IV (Adrienne) of Pass Christian, MS. He was the proud ""Paw-Paw"" to Chris, Alex, Jana, Colton, Emily, Rheanne, Barry and Jamison.
Having lost his own father at a very early age, George strove to be the best father and provider he could, always giving and forgiving. He was a warm, kind, funny man, who could make you laugh to warm your heart.
In lieu of flowers, please make donations to any of the following: the St. Vincent de Paul Society, the Gulf Coast Humane Society, the American Diabetes Association or the American Heart Association.
Funeral services will be held on Monday, October 3, 2011, at Our Lady of Fatima, at 11:00 a.m. Friends may visit one hour prior to services.
Burial will follow at Floral Hills Memorial Gardens. The Riemann Family Funeral Home, in Biloxi is in charge of arrangements and tributes may be offered at www.riemannfamily.com.
