We will surely miss you George. I really appreciated George being there at his shop, he helped me out several times, without making me feel bad about the shape my equipment was in. I also appreciated George for his kindness and for being available to his customers... warm thoughts to Eileen and family!

I am saddened with the passing of George. I only knew George thru his shop and it was always a good experience. Tried to convince him to join the Native Sons of the Golden West he would have been an assest to the organization and would have become a friend also. His smile and sense of humor will always be remembered. My prayers and thoughts are with his family and may his memory fill your life with happyness and peace.
