George H. Speenburgh

January 26, 1939 ~ June 28, 2025

Let the family know you care by sharing this tribute.

George Speenburgh, 86, of Port Saint Lucie, Florida, passed away peacefully on Saturday, June 28, 2025.

Born in 1939 in the heart of the Catskill Mountains, George grew up in the community of Hunter, New York. In 1963, he married the love of his life, Barbara Johnson of Tannersville, New York. In November of 1973, George and Barbara relocated to Port Saint Lucie, Florida. Though George and Barbara eventually parted ways, they remained close friends throughout their lives, supporting each other until Barbara’s passing in 2022.

George spent his life working in the construction field and later founded his own construction company.
George had a passion for antique cars, especially the Model T, along with collecting coins and vintage bottles. He loved repairing and collecting slot machines. George traveled to Las Vegas many times, drawn not only by the thrill of the slot machines but also by the city’s dazzling architecture and surrounding natural beauty. Each visit had to include a trip to Hoover Dam, a marvel of engineering that deeply fascinated him.

He is survived by his children, Georgia (Matthew) Guettler, Deborah Mounts, and Kristin (David) Thomas; his brother, Harry Speenburgh; his grandchildren, Travis (Jessica), Bryan, Jaylynne, Marshall, Jeovonni, Avah, Zaire, and Nasir; and five great-grandchildren. He was predeceased by his parents, Theodore and Lydia Speenburgh, and his grandson, Brandon Guettler.

George’s memory will live on in the hearts of all who knew and loved him.

Let the family know you care by sharing this tribute.

The service from Millennium was outstanding. Rachel was sweet, personable and very comforting. It was important to me that my dad was kept locally where I knew where he would be. Very nice facility, state of the art and quality of my fathers remains were so refined compared to my mothers years ago. I highly recommend this place for an affordable choice for your loved one. Thank you for making an already stressful event easy. With high regards, the Esposito and Keith Family.

Millennium Cremation provided a fantastic service to our family at a difficult time. Our beloved mother passed away in Vero Beach and the rest of the family was in other parts of the country. Due to the Covid health crisis, none of us could get to Vero Beach in person. That's where Millennium took over. They helped us manage everything, coordinated with a cemetery in Maine, managed the obituaries, expedited all the paperwork, and even delivered an important document locally that saved us days. Funeral director Rachel was a godsend, and she made it clear what she was going to do, and what we needed to do. If you know what you want, Millennium is highly recommended, and the savings versus the full service mortuaries is significant.
