George C Berlandi Jr. aka "Papa" or "Mr. B", resident of Concord, NH, formerly of Everett, MA, Passed away on June 27, 2026 at the age of 81.
George was born on November 1, 1944 in Malden, MA. He was one of six children (4 girls and 2 boys) and grew up in Everett, MA where he spent most of his early years. After moving to NH in 1968, he received a Bachelor's Degree in Civil- Sanitary Engineering from Northeastern University, a Master's Degree in Sanitary Engineering from the University of NH, and an MBA from Southern NH University. He was employed by several consulting engineering firms in the state and spent the latter of his career as the Supervisor of the Permits and Compliance Section for the Department of Environmental Services.
George was probably best known as a "hugger". Wherever he went, he would hug everyone he met, regardless of whether it was a man, woman, or child.
George also loved kids. If he wasn't coaching sports or playing ion his yard with the neighborhood kids, he was playing Santa Claus at an elementary school.
He continued his love of children when, after he retired, found his true passion working in Webster Elementary School, first as a one- on -one aide and later one, as an assistant to the Guidance Counselor.
He was predeceased by his parents, George and Anna, and two of his sisters, Marie and Diane.
He is survived by his wife, best friend, and soul mate for over 43 years, Barbara Helen. She was the love of his life.
He is also survived by his two other sisters, Adrienne and Donna, and his brother Bobby, as well as their 5 children, and several grandchildren and great- grandchildren.
