I had the pleasure of knowing George for at least the last 20 years as a client and as a friend. I enjoyed so many great talks with George, he was a great conversationalist, I sure am happy that I was his friend and on his good side, I would never want to be on his bad side, he had a lot of honor and loyalty and was a man who believed in doing the right thing, with impeccable morals and values, he was very kind and giving, loved to bring presents and gifts to me, my co-workers, my husband, my son, my grandaughter, even my dog. He had lots of good recipes and foods that he shared with us. I loved listening to his opinions about the world, politics, sports and taking in all his knowledge. It was priceless. There were times he was a best friend and other times he was like a dad giving me the right advice. I will miss him. He definitely has made a contribution to my life, He paid it forward to me many times which is about what life should be. My heart goes out to this special family, and I know Heaven has received a special kind of angel and he now has no pain or suffering.
