George,
It has been one year now since you have gone and I want you to know that I am missing you so. You are the Love of my Life, Heart of my Heart and most of all you are my soulmate. I thank God for having you in my life to help me raise my children and doing it as your own. You are their Dad and they too miss you so. But always know that you are forever in my heart and I thank you for sharing your life with me. I love you and miss you now, but I will see you when my time is due and we will be together again FOREVER.
Love Donna

Donna, Heather (and family), Chrissy (and family), Bobby (and Family) and all of those who truly loved George, AKA Big "G" or Mr. "G" I send you all my deepest sympathy for your loss. Although I have only known George for a short time I will miss him very much also. George was very much a "Gentle Giant" of a man who would do whatever he could for anyone he met or knew no matter how long. He loved you all with all his heart and never failed to show his affections. Squirrel and I will always cherish the Motorcycle Windchime he surprised us with as a gift for helping you (Donna) after your accident. It was not necessary but he did it just the same and that is just the way Big "G" was always. We will miss him around the Holiday dinner tables but always know that his presence will be with us all forever until we meet again.

Dear Donna
I know how much George cared and loved you and your children. He spoke of all of you and was proud. He did not leave you; he has brought you all with him in his heart.

Dear Durivage Family
George was a very special person. He was a kind, caring, and thoughtful man. I loved his free spirit and how he enjoyed his life. I will miss seeing him behind the wheel of his big truck with his arm resting on the window's edge. His heart was as big as his being and I will always remember the help he offered. He is at rest now and in a lovely place.

Dear Durivage Family, I am so sorry to hear about George's passing. I got to meet George when he needed medical assistance such as Medicaid. He was a kind and gentle man that I thoroughly enjoyed helping. He called me often for advise or whatever it was that I could help him with. He used to send me thank you cards to my office that I still treasure today. I have them all. Once he sent me a card intended for his nephew. It has a purple cat on the card and the cat is wearing sunglasses. The front said for the coolist nephew in the world. Perhaps he mixed them up while thinking of both of us. George has impacted my life while I had the opportunity to help him. I will never forget him, may he rest now in peace.
