A year ago today Brent called me and told me you were gone. I keep telling myself that you are resting. Oh, how I wish you were with us. You live in my heart and your memory shines. Forever, my Brother

George, What can I say, a whole year has almost gone by since you left. I still think of you almost daily, I even find myself talking to you, and in your way you have answered me. In so many ways you have helped we deal with myself, and for that I thank you. And thanks for the help you have given me my our place in Cedar. It's been weird, but some how I feel you have been involved. Until we meet again, I will always love you.

Dear Cousin George
Your sweet face is among the photos I look at every day. I hold the memories of our childhood close to my heart, and know that you are in the Arms of Jesus. I love you and will always miss you.

George, I miss you so very much. George always wanted to be in a church on Christmas Eve. Every year since he moved to Cedar City, he and I would go to Midnight Mass at the Christ the King Catholic Church. This will be the first year without him and I am saddened to be going alone. I remember the times walking out of the church at night when the snowflakes would be falling. It was so peaceful. I admired George's quiet faith in God. I wish the entire Greenwell family Peace during this holiday season. All of you have been so good to me over the years.

Cousin George - I will always cherish the fond memories playing with you at Uncle Bob's big house when dad (Paul) would take me to visit. You were the best. True salt of the Earth. Rest well until we meet again.

At this time when the family is feeling great pain, I find myself remembering the Christmas day that I played football in the back yard of the Greenwell family home in Biloxi with you and Jim. God bless.

Uncle George,
From your unique laugh to your warming smile, I will always miss you. You were a man who created your own path. A path that led you places that you will only know. Regardless your situation in life, I could always count on you to transform my personal anguish into a smile. You were a man who always listened to my problems without replication. You were a man who always lent an unbiased ear.
You are a man I will always miss.

George, you are and will continue to be my beloved brother, confidante and the best of friend . You have always held me to the highest esteem. When I was down you always brought me up. You always talked the best of people and were silent when others were not as respectful. Even though you had your demons, you would never show them. Your impact on my life cannot be measures and will never be forgotten and I look forward to being with you again. ”Fly on Free Bird”

George, You were more to me than my uncle, you were a dear friend. Your gentle, genuine manner was always a joy and should serve as inspiration to us all. I'll miss you!

There is a huge void in our family that hurts terribly but over time the pain will lessen. You will always be with me in my thoughts and prayers. I know you are in a much better place now. Rest in much needed peace. I have been so fortunate to have you as my brother and to have been your sister. Love you always. . . Sue

Uncle George cabin trips will never be the same without you. It is still so hard for me to realize that you are gone. I know you are looking down on all of us and will always watch out for us all. I know we will one day meet again.
I love you.

George was a caring person with a genuine interest in those around him. I agree with my husband, Rob, that going to the cabin won't be the same without having George there.

Brother George,
It seems like just yesterday since I last spoke with you. I treasure all our discussions. I learned so much about pain, suffering, heartache, humility and understanding. You are my little brother. Thanks for making my life important. I love you George. I know one day our paths will cross once again. I look forward to that day. Look for me along the river. Love, Brother Brent
