We received the following information from Ernie Haase this morning:

It is with great sorrow that I must tell you that our beloved George went home to be with the Lord this morning (April 11th, 2005) at approx. 3:30 am.

We are sad and life will never be the same but we are happy for George. He had been so very sick and in much pain for the last few months but now He is healthier and happier than he has ever been.

More details to follow concerning the funeral.

Please continue to pray for the family.

Mr. Younce has been such an inspiration to so many. I loved hearing Him sing "This old house" and "Thanks to Calvary". Wish I could've seen him in person, but I'm glad that he is out of his pain and suffering.

It is truly a sad day to learn of George Younce's death. Without a doubt he is home in HEAVEN where he longed to go and sang about so often! My deepest sympathy and prayers to his family and the entire Southern Gospel community. May we be as faithful as George was in being a witness to those who do not know Jesus as their personal Saviour.

George blessed my life so many times through the Homecoming videos. It was a great joy to see him in person at a Homecoming concert. When he came out of the audience singing "This Old House", I was almost in the heavenlies! May God be with and comfort his dear wife and family is my prayer. Another soldier's gone Home.

George has reached Heaven and I know he went in with a shout!! Our loss is Heavens Gain. He was my friend and a true Quartet man. He loved Jesus and his family and people. I will always remember the last time I spoke with him he said I love You and I told him the same! God Bless all the Younce family. George has fought the good fight and kept the faith he has entered
Heaven and has heard well done thy good and faithful servent. God Bless We love you Younce family! Bro. Ken

My prayers are with George's family. One of my favorite songs he did on the Homecoming videos was "Beyond the Sunset" His voice will be remembered by SG fans forever.
