While in Estero he devotes his time to beautifying the Unity grounds and assisting in other lines of endeavors."

FLAMING SWORD, Community Current Events by Max E. Arendt, May 1931: "It is with deepest regret that we report the death of Brother George Main, and his many friends in and out of the Unity feel the loss keenly. Brother George was a successful landscape gardener and possessed a large fund of valuable information concerning horticultural questions. For many years he spent his winters at the Unity, during which time he worked tirelessly in beautifying the Unity grounds and giving his services where required. Brother George is survived by three sons and one daughter, all of whom reside at Gloversville, New York. His son, Albert C. Main, had visited at the Unity with his father just a few weeks previously. Our heartfelt sympathy goes out to Brother George's family. His body was shipped to his home in New York for burial."
