Unfortunately we were unable to spend enough time together over the years as we were all so far away. It’s hard to say good bye to another family member but we will celebrate a life well lived and cherish the memories of our time together keeping both Uncle George and Aunt Nancy in our hearts.

It was an honor to take care of George at Sisters Hospital near the end of his life. As all the staff noted to me, he was a real gentleman and a great guy. Deepest condolences.
