George Walter Nikstaitis, 72, of Westminster, MD, passed onto glory with peace in his heart on April 20th at The Dove House Hospice surrounded by his devoted wife Phyllis, friends and family.
He was born in Atlanta, GA and grew up in Rockville, MD. He entered the US Army at the age of 18 as a 2nd Lieutenant. George went on to receive his nursing degree from College of the Desert in Palm Dale, CA. He then went on to attend Winebrenner Seminary in Findley, Ohio and became a Pastor in order to add a spiritual dimension to his nursing. His mission was to bring God’s word to family, friends and the world.
He is survived by his beloved wife Phyllis; three sons: Don Nikstaitis, Doug Nikstaitis and wife Kerrie, Daniel Nikstaitis and wife Teresa; three daughters: Faith Mclean, Marilou Nikstaitis, Sheree Nikstaitis; brother, Art Nikstaitis and wife Jamie; sister, Marilou Carter and husband Dennis; 13 grandchildren; 8 great-grandchildren.
George did not want a formal memorial service. It was his sincere wish that the loved ones he left behind remember him in their own way.
