Dear George, Little did we know that morning that God was going to call your name. In life you were loved dearly, in death will do the same. It broke our hearts to lose you. You did not go alone for part of us went with you the day God called you home. You left us peaceful memories. Although we cannot see you, you will always be on our side. Your family chain is broken and nothing will seem the same, but as God calls us one by one, the chain will link again.
Take care George. Frank X. Flynn, Sun City, California

Although we only knew him for a brief time, he touched our hearts with his warmth,smile and openess. His ability to be excepting of all dispite their disabilities was perhalps his greatest asset and his legacy will live on forever. My deepest sympathy to his family. May they take comfort in knowing that what Blackie accomplished matters and he will be sadly missed by all of his friends.
