Barbara,
George was the very definition of a Gentleman. Nothing made performing with SLOCO better for me than seeing George onstage, singing with a twinkle in his eye. My heart is broken now. I'm sure that George is in Heaven, singing right along side of Gilbert & Sullivan! God bless you and your family. And God bless George.
Love,
Julie
