GEORGE J. MOHR, III age 68, beloved husband for nearly 25 years of Lynett (nee Cooke); loving father of Tammy (Brian) Wendl, Dawn (Brian) Kline, George J. (Kristi) Mohr, IV, Heather (Gale) Knight, Mindy (Willie) Haines, and the late Keira Mohr; devoted grandfather of Brian “Goonie” (Kali), Caitlin (Seth), Brandon, Kyle, Harlee, Bradley, Tanner, Xander, Fifi, Layla, and Max; cherished son of the late George J., Jr. and Helen (nee Faulk); dearest brother of the late Keith (Pat) Mohr uncle and great-uncle of many.
George was born on November 11, 1952 in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania and passed away on June 22, 2021 surrounded by his family. Growing up in Pittsburgh, he graduated from Shaler High School and continued his education to become a mechanical engineer. His career took him from Pittsburgh every day to Perry, Ohio to work at Perry Nuclear Power Plant. He was truly the jack of all trades. He was great at woodworking and fixing everyone’s car and was passionate about his time spent as a firefighter for Montville, OH. On August 17, 1996 he married Lynett and together they enjoyed vacations to Disney, going on cruises, and square dancing. He also liked spending time fishing with the grandchildren at their house, having his toes painted bright colors by his granddaughter, watching the grandchildren Boy/Girl Scout and sporting events. George cooked every holiday meal and was known for always leaving the t.v. on, whether he was watching and rooting for his Pittsburg Steelers or having it on simply for background noise. He was an amazing man. He set the perfect example of how to treat your wife and how to leave a person better than you found them. George was a devoted husband, dad, papa and friend, and for this he will be dearly missed.

My deepest sympathy to you all during this time of grief. George and I worked together at Perry Nuclear Power Plant. George lived near my family back in Pgh (Shaler Twp) and was a good friend then. We then ended up working as team mates in the Rapid Response section at Perry. I know how close you all were and I know George will be watching over you at all times. My thoughts and prayers are with you all.

My deepest sympathy for your loss. I worked with George for many years at Perry, in HVAC and later in Rapid Response, up until the time he retired. Always easy to work with and often would lighten the mood with a joke or quip when we were dealing with issues. He is already missed. Our thoughts and prayer are with you.

George was always a great person and was loved by all. I had the privilege of teaching him his EMT class and watching his sorrow when they lost Kiera. I’m glad he had such a great life. His greatest laugh at that time was about Georgie’s shoe size. I’m sorry I didn’t know of his passing until his last call.
