George J. Pomranky

George Junior Pomranky, age 93, was called home to heaven on March 3, 2020 to be with his Lord and Savior Jesus and with loved ones who have gone before him.

George was born in Midland, Michigan on September 8,1926 to George Edward Pomranky and Bessie Estella (Berridge) Pomranky. He was raised and lived in Midland until he retired from his life-long employment at Dow Chemical Company, where he worked as a lab technician. In 1986, a few years after retiring, he and his wife Mary moved to Grand Rapids where they spent the remainder of their lives.

George was a devoted husband to Mary, faithful father to his children and generous neighbor and friend to many. He loved to garden and give away his produce, eat good food and socialize over meals, hunt, farm, build, read, travel, and talk on the phone with acquaintances and friends he had made on his travels. He prized each one of these friendships.

George was preceded in death by his wife Mary and by his parents, sister Ruth and brother-in-law John Spitnale. He will be missed by his family: sons Greg (CarolLynn), Vance (Kathy), Kevin, and Kim (Lisa), daughter Michelle (Ray) Snoek, grandchildren Esther Pomranky (Mike) Neibling, Luke (Jane) Pomranky, Bethany (Aaron) Keuter, Sharon (Clark) Bakewell, Doren (Amber) Snoek, Heidelise Snoek, and Collin Snoek, as well as four great-grandsons.
