Dr. George S. Mauerman, devoted father, physician, and friend passed away peacefully in his home early Monday, October 2, 2023, at the age of 86.

Born April 6, 1937, in Monroe, WI, George was a Phi Beta Kappa football scholarship graduate of Vanderbilt University. He went on to receive his medical degree from Columbia University. When duty called, he served as a captain at March Air Force Base. Upon completing his orthopedic residency at the prestigious Campbell Clinic in 1970, George joined Eastern Oklahoma Orthopedic Center, now Advanced Orthopedics of Oklahoma. That same year he began serving as the team physician at the University of Tulsa where he worked up until the day he died.

George went on to become one of the most renowned orthopedic surgeons in not only Tulsa, but also the country. His numerous awards and achievements are well documented and established, most notably having the sports medicine facility at The University of Tulsa named after him. Despite his many professional accomplishments, George valued Faith, Family and Friends above all else.

He became a member of Asbury Church in 1970 where he attended the early morning Sunday service for over 50 years.

George was preceded in death by his beloved wife Adrien, parents George and Bertha and sister Barbara. Survived by his brother Bill Mauerman of Madison, WI, son Bill Mauerman of Tulsa, OK, daughter Heidi and her husband Mike Wendland and their children Preston and Noah of Austin, TX, daughter Heather and her husband Rob Paris and their children Morgan and John of Charlotte, NC.
