George Delbert Taufer, 3/10/1944 – 10/06/2013
Murphys, CA...In the early morning of a beautiful fall day George Delbert Taufer departed this earthly existence. There are so many friends and loved ones who will dearly miss him and his gentle ways. He was a great role model, teacher and coach over a 35 year career at Hopkins Jr. High School in Fremont, CA. But his greatest accomplishments centered around the love and caring he showed for his wife and family. He was a man of God and his faith was strong. He was a service oriented man who gave much of his time and energy to people in need including ward members and hurricane victims...
He leaves behind, for now, his adoring and devoted wife of 36 years, Margaret Eileen Taufer, and two grown sons Randy and Scott Nordvik as well as 9 grandchildren, Renee Nordvik, Ashley Lee, Kaylynn Lee, Peyton Snyder, Colton Nordvik, Kylie Nordvik, Cody Nordvik, Wyatt Nordvik and Kassidy Nordvik. He recently welcomed his first great-granddaughter Emma Nicole Green. He was predeceased by a third son, Brad Nordvik and an adopted daughter, Jenny VanWinkle. A memorial service is planned for October 21, at 12:00 noon at the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints in Murphys, CA. Donations in lieu of flowers may be sent to the American Cancer Society, 207 E. Alpine Ave., Stockton, CA 95204.
