George Lee Lucas passed away at his home in Tyronza, Arkansas on Saturday, January 26, 2019 surrounded by his loving family. George was 93 years of age. He was born in Savannah, Tennessee on November 15, 1925 to parents William and Elsie Lucas. He was married for over 40 years to his loving wife Betty Lucas before God called her home. George was an Army Veteran. He worked most of his life in the road construction industry as a heavy equipment operator. He was a longtime member of the Tyronza Church of Christ. He had a passion for the outdoors and was one of the few trappers who remain in the area.

He will be deeply missed by twelve grandchildren, twenty great-grandchildren as well as three great-great-grandchildren. George was preceded in death by his parents, his wife, one daughter, Judy Rogers and brothers; Charles, John and Whitten Lucas.
In lieu of flowers, the family requests a contribution be made to the Sardis Lake Christian Camp in Sardis, Mississippi.
