Beth Lee I'm so sorry to have read about loosing your Uncle George and saddened for the family loss to the Children and Grandchildren of his brother James. I heard many wonderful stories of the great family picnics you all shared thought out your childhood. The memories will always be there for all of you to share. He is now in Heaven and I'm sure his brother James and the rest of the family is so happy to see him again. He is at Peace in God's Kingdom surrounded by Angels and Love. My Heart goes out to you at a time like this.
