Built wooden models despite losing part of his right hand in an accident.
With little fanfare, an Avon Lake legend George Edward Junke Sr., 80, passed away on March 26 Fairview Hospital, and slipped away quietly in his sleep.

He lived modestly and built wooden models of famous sailing vessels, with full …
