George David Vuillemot passed away peacefully on Jan. 1, 2019.
George is survived by his loving wife Nancy of 28 years. He is also survived by his children Liz and Jack Wilson, Andrew and Julie Vuillemot, Annie and Mark Buchtrup, and Sherry and Jo Upton; and proud grandpa to eight grandchildren.
George lived an adventurous life from stock car racing to calf roping. In his younger days, he raised Arabian horses and worked as an outrider at the harness horse race tracks in the Chicagoland area.
Before retiring, he ran a successful hunt club and bird dog training kennel. Along with that, he raised his prized Championship Field trial dogs.
In 2011, Nancy and George retired to Milford to be close to family.
A private family celebration will be held at a later date.
In lieu of flowers, the family would like donations to be made to The National Infectious Disease Center at http://www.nfid.org/donate.
