Biography

George M. B. Maughs was known among Bellefontaine families as a voice of sound judgment and compassionate service, whether he was advising a neighbor or tending to community matters. He took pride in seeing the town prosper and believed that steady leadership meant listening as much as directing.

He delighted in seeing the laughter of children in new parks and the pride of citizens in their homes, and he generously shared his time with anyone in need of an encouraging word. His presence is still remembered for the calm steadiness that helped Bellefontaine weather both prosperity and hardship.
