My deepest condolences to Uncle George and my cousins Karen, Susan, and Nancy. I will always have the fond memories of Thanksgiving and Christmas at your home during the 60's and 70's. I Remember as it was yesterday, the three sisters in the kitchen preparing the Holiday dinner, wondering when were we ever going to eat all that delicious food. Rest in Peace Aunt Ruth. Love Glenn
