George E. Schrecengost, 87, beloved husband and father, passed away Friday, August 3, 2018, in Washington, Missouri. George was united in marriage to Dorothy Donegan on June 27, 1953, in Mineral Ridge, Ohio.  George worked at RTI/Tradco as President and General Manager for 60 years.  He loved interacting with the people that worked there. George had a love for the game of golf and in his earlier years was a great bowler. He enjoyed mowing the yard with a cigar in his mouth. He and his wife also enjoyed going to the wineries, meeting with friends to play Phase 10 and Dominos. George got such pleasure in helping people to make their lives easier, he had a heart of gold, and Heaven is even a better place now that he has arrived. He was a member of the Elks Lodge 1559 and the Union Moose Lodge. George will be dearly missed by all who had the pleasure of knowing him.
