George & Eddie served the Manning community for over 50 years.
Besides working hard all of their lives, they also entertained the community for over 50 years with their musical talents.
George was over 75 years old when he retired but continued for a number of more years playing the clarinet in various bands/groups.

When I hear people complain today about their jobs and most of them have never served their community in a volunteer capacity - they need to read about the Fischer brothers and other folks from this generation who served the community and weren't leeches on society like way too many people are today.
