Myself, George, BlackJack Brown, Bob M & @Starshot9 would always go to the Oregon Diner whenever I was at the ECW Arena.
George loved to bowl and I hope he’s bowling in Heaven right now.
RIP ????????

We're losing too many friends of the business. It was always a pleasure to see George Tahinos during my travels over the years. I was honored the few times he made the trip to Berwyn to shoot SHIMMER. Here's a look back at some of George's Berwyn photos. pic.twitter.com/KkY4FtdvVA

Used so many of his pics in ECW programs. If you’ve seen anything with wrestling pictures since the 90s, you’ve seen George’s work. The best.
Deepest condolences to his friends and family.
Absolutely GUTTED to learn that legendary pro wrestling photographer George Tahinos has passed away. He took so many photos of my career. He was generous with me.

I remember way over 20 yrs. ago him being the photographer regularly for shows I was on at the ECW arena and all over the northeast. A truly nice guy that I always enjoyed chatting with when I saw.

George Tahinos was a talented photographer with a keen eye and a great work ethic. We were always delighted to include his pictures in our magazines, and we will, above all, miss seeing him at shows all across the tri-state area. Rest well, friend. https://t.co/4784gmRZeK
