Debbie & Craig,
Janie and I extend our thoughts and condolences to you and yours on father's passing. Everytime we think of him we recall our trip through Swanton, VT years ago and how close we were to the Davis redoubt. And just knowing Craig, we realize father was a good man, indeed! We'll be in touch.
Fondly, Bob & Janie

To all of George's family, My wife Betty & I worked with George at CNG. I have never met a nicer person than George, he was a real gentleman, very honest and sincere, always bragged about his family and the fun he had with everyone. Our prayers go out to the family, and may God Bless everyone during these difficult times.
