George Albert Drake Obituary
It is with deep sorrow that we announce the death of George Albert Drake (Grinnell, Iowa), who passed away on October 15, 2022, at the age of 88, leaving to mourn family and friends. Leave a sympathy message to the family in the guestbook on this memorial page of George Albert Drake to show support.
He was loved and cherished by many people including: his wife Sue; his son Chris (Kay); his grandchildren, Nick (Jenny), Elizabeth and Hannah; his daughter Cindy (Louie Vencato); his granddaughters, Danielle, Lila and Samantha Drake-Flam; and his daughter Melanie (Tom Wickersham).
In 2020, in the face of the remote instruction necessitated by the global COVID-19 pandemic, George reluctantly elected to stop teaching.
In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions can be donated to the Grinnell College Liberal Arts in Prison Program, the Grinnell Area Mental Health Consortium - JPK, or an organization of your choice, in memory of George Drake.
