George Haswell - A Pillar of So Cal Water Skiing

George Haswell, 2006 mens 8 Nationals Overall winner, Numerous Regional championships, Wet Set club member for 5:30am 11/26/2013. George will always be remembered as a Great friend to us all. His presence was acute, listening to so many, even when his hearing was poor! George always stayed active, if not on the water, then snow skiing, or hiking with Fran in the Sierra’s or Joshua Tree or somewhere, when not working on his cabin in Big Bear which is where his ashes will be spread in the Rose garden so passers by can still pay him greetings. This Pillar of So Cal waterskiing has touched multi generations reaching back to the 70’s. Survived by son George  Haswell, Kirk Haswell and Fran Penn. No services, he simply wouldn’t want that.

But remember his fire, his passion, his ability, coaching and encouragement and see if you can do as much as well as George Haswell.
