George was always nice to me when I worked in New Braintree and friendly to me and my family when we'd bump into each other at Reeds.
My grandson, Steven, and my son and I were invited by George to follow him to his house to pick black walnuts from his lawn and to see his collection in the barn. It made my little grandson's day. He was one of those people who was very nice to have around.
