It is with the deepest sympathy we post this message. Mavis touched our hearts and became a friend to us back in Christmas 2001 when we visited Disneyland Florida, George and Mavis befriended us and in particular our daughter Stephanie. We went back again in 2003 and arranged to meet them both, we had a great time thanks to them. We have very fond memories of those occasions and always kept in contact with each other. Every Christmas we would keep an eye out for the Postman who delivered a parcel from the USA and that parcel always took pride of place under the festive tree. Mavis will be sadly missed and a whole has been left in our hearts. God bless you Mavis and our deepest sympathy got to family and friends and in particular George.
Love from Barry, Donna and stephanie.(England)

Dear George and family,
I am so sorry for your loss especially this time of year. I will always remember the good times I had with Marvis. I enjoyed bowling with her and later years going to our BBP dinners. I will miss her. May it give you comfort others are thinking of you.
