George M. Prescott Sr., Esq., aged 84, of Lincoln, passed away peacefully at home on Sunday, December 8, 2024, surrounded by his loving family. He was the devoted husband of Linda L. (Read) Prescott, with whom he shared 35 years of marriage.

Born in Pawtucket, George was the son of the late Lewis A. and Faith A. (Jenks) Prescott. A resident of Lincoln since 1950, he previously called Pawtucket home. His mother, Faith A. Jenks, was a seventh-generation descendant of Joseph Jenks, founder of the City of Pawtucket, and an eighth-generation descendant of John Howland and Elizabeth Tilley, Mayflower passengers who landed in Plymouth, MA in 1620.

A graduate of the University of Rhode Island and Suffolk University Law School, George was a distinguished and highly respected attorney who practiced law in Lincoln for over 50 years, specializing in Estate Planning, Wills and Trusts. He was the proud owner of his own practice, where he provided compassionate guidance and expertise to countless clients. George was a past President of the Pawtucket Bar Association and was held in the highest esteem by his fellow lawyers for his knowledge.

George was also an astute businessman with decades of experience in real estate development and investments. Beyond his professional accomplishments, he found joy in restoring classic Corvettes, and those who knew him will forever cherish his meticulous attention to detail and his caring nature.

George leaves behind his beloved wife, Linda; his beloved children, George M. Prescott Jr. of Newport, and Christine E. Prescott and her husband Bradley J. Diegel of Pawtucket; and his sister, June M. Tougas of Connecticut. George is also the stepfather of John D. Fanning of Georgia and Peter F. Fanning of Maine. John and his wife Tonya gave him two step-grandchildren, Noah and Elsie. Peter and Andrea gave him a step-grandson, Peter II. George cherished his step-grandchildren and was always there to help them out. He will also be fondly remembered by his many nieces and nephews. He was the brother of the late Lewis A. Prescott Jr. and Richard T. Prescott.

A private burial will be held in his honor at a later date.

In lieu of flowers, memorial donations in George's honor may be made to Bradley Hospital or Rhode Island Legal Services, Inc.
