Remembering the people behind GE
GE Honorable Mentions
Preserving their names. Honoring their contributions. Keeping their legacies alive.
Vintage-style artistic recreation of GE's historic businesses.
GE Honorable Mentions grew from the GE Employees Facebook community — a place to remember the people whose work helped shape GE. Here, we preserve their names and legacies, alongside the businesses they contributed to, so their part in GE's story is not forgotten.
Self-nomination is welcome. If your own GE story deserves to be remembered, tell it yourself — in your own words, about the work you did and the businesses you contributed to.
These are community recognitions, not official corporate awards. GE Heritage Village is a volunteer project, not affiliated with or endorsed by General Electric. New nominations are reviewed and published only with permission.
