Vivian, Amy and Carol,
George was a friend, mentor and associate that gave me so many opportunities to grow as a person and as a business man. I am praying for you as you go through this difficult time. Know that all of you will be in my heart and mind forever.

George was one of my closest and best friends through junior high and high school. We played ball together, double dated, spent the night with one another, and basically enjoyed life together. I never thought of George apart from Vivian. Over the years I have ofted rued the way life and time can separate us from old and special friends. May God bless and comfort you, Vivian, and all your family in this brief time of separation from George.
