Biography

George Marshall Dodge spent a lifetime shaping the civic life of his community, balancing private enterprise with a thoughtful care for his neighbors. Those who knew him recall the quiet dinners where he listened to young men and women before urging them toward service.

He was equally respected for his contributions to local charities and for the way he quietly supported the preservation of shared spaces, ensuring that families could gather and that the values of fairness and cohesion endured, and he now rests at Oakwood Memorial Park, a quiet testament to the steady generosity that marked his life.
