    I knew George through work.....I was his Union Rep and then his Foreman. We had good times together in a place we both disliked immensely. I knew George was a singer but never knew he was known all over the World. He came to my Silver wedding and sang a couple of songs .....I was Blessed to know him. Privileged to spend time with him and see that smile on his face. I come on You Tube every once in a while just to see and hear him.
    George lives on in all who knew him.

      George was exactly 1 month older than my brother whom I lost to Brain Cancer.... Something always told me that George was one of the Most humble of a person Sadly I never got to meet any of the Celttic thunder band due to where I live in Lancashire in the UK. But fell in love with them drom as far back as 2015 ish Just wish I had the oppertunity to have met George

    I came across George and Celtic thunder only this year but when I listen to his amazing voice it feels like I have known him/them all my life. His music and charisma will live on in my heart for as long as live. Love that beautiful smile. Miss and love you George. RIP my friend. 🙏🙏❤❤

    I was sad to hear George Donaldson passed away. I really enjoy watching him in Celtic Thunder, a great singing group and great voices. It is different without him and I do miss that. They were wonderful. RIP George Donaldson! Keep up the beautiful music Celtic Thunder.

    I was exploring on my laptop ten years ago and I came across the strapping bonnie laddies. Once I heard them sing I was totally hooked. So when I'm at a house cleaning I listen to Celtic thunder. It's sad about George. He'll be missed but not forgotten. 😢❤

    went to a Celtic Thunder concert performance right after he died not knowing he had passed. Cried the whole way through. I had it listed on my bucket list to hear him in person. Now it's to late. Never put things off or it will be to late for you too.

    I met met Celtic T on my phone, Utube years after George left us. I was moved when he did Birds without Wings with Damian. CT is one of my favourite groups. I'm a Jamaican and wants to thank his family for sharing this 'giant'. RIP, George I miss you, tho I have never met you. Valerie Virgo, Jamaica, West Indies.

    Rest well, George; journey well. While touching countless lives via charisma, character, and music is a fine legacy to have, I wish we didn't have to think in terms of legacy so soon.

    Considering how cheerful George was, I think your choice of music could have been a little better. We want to celebrate his life, not be as morbid as the music sounds. (Just a thought)
