I remember George being a senior while I was an 8th grade student. George was very sweet to me; I guess he realized that I was quite 'young' as I embarked upon my high school years. I am sure he grew up to be a wonderful man; I am sorry for your loss.

Our prayers are with you, Terry Beth and family, even as George's goodness shines on in the lives of his children and grandkids. How can we forget the fun he had with Rockhurst High School theater and his pride in his children's generous service to so many, especially Elizabeth's career and Jimmy's work at University of Dallas and Simple House. George's joy in life will continue to witness Hope to us all.

I remember fondly when my family would visit your family when George and Fred were not yet in school. We loved to come to Uncle Ott's and Aunt Dora's big house in the city.
May your memories bring you comfort. May your faith bring you hope. Peace, love and prayers...
