Born in Dennison, Ohio on November 30, 1938, he was the only child of the late Ralph and Frances (Heavlin) Carmack.
George was a 1956 graduate of Dennison High School. He served his country in the United States Army in several locations until he was discharged home to help his father on the family farm.
