George L Fix of Melrose, MA, died peacefully on January 8th, 2022, at the Stella Maris Hospice
in Baltimore, MD.
Born on October 19, 1950, in Syracuse, NY, George was the son of the late Lloyd and
Jeanne Fix and the youngest of his siblings, Linda Barbato (Richard) of Fairport, NY and Lloyd
Fix Jr. (Susan) of Syracuse. George was proud of his Syracuse roots and was often seen
sporting the Orange attire of his Alma Mater, Syracuse University.
George is survived by his adult children, Jared Fix (Emily) of SanFrancisco CA and
Shenan Russel of Towson MD; his 5 grandchildren: Eliane, Isla, and Myles Russel,
Zoe and Lucie Fix; as well as his longtime partner, Anne Anagnos.
George worked at Raytheon as an engineer for almost 40 years before medically retiring. He
excelled and relished in solving problems, making his position and long tenure at Raytheon, a
perfect match for both. He loved handywork and was often found in his workshop building
furniture, rebuilding a transmission, or working on a similar project. He was known for his dry wit
and unconventional wisdom. He will be missed greatly by many, but especially by his family.
A memorial service and celebration of his life will be held in June in Massachusetts.
