George was born in Lincoln, Nebraska to Bill Borner and Irene Kesselring Borner. George's mother Irene died when George was 6 years old. Later his father married Lucille Moormeier, who became George's second mother.
George graduated from Sterling high school in 1960 and married Pat Grauberger, his wife of 51 years, on January 26, 1964. George served in the United States Army from 1966 to 1969, stationed most of that time in Germany, and his wife Pat was able to be there with him. After being discharged from the Army, George and Pat moved back to Sterling and started their family, welcoming their daughter Kristy Suzanne and son Chad Michael.
George was a lifetime member of the Elks Club, and among the many things he did in life, he loved reading, hunting, fishing, boating, arrowhead hunting, woodworking, assembling puzzles, and taking many trips to Lake Powell with family and friends.
George was very active in both the Sterling community and his church community. George served as an Elder and a Deacon at the Presbyterian Church, and he loved his church family. He dearly loved wife Pat, his family, his granddaughters, his life, and his country, and he touched the lives of everyone around him. He made this world a better place, one step at a time.
