Dear Pam and Family,
Sorry I could not make it for visitation, touch of the flu.
Always remembered the time that George and Hooker Baker played golf with Brother Wayne and I at West Liberty. We had a ball!
Thinking of you all.
Sincerely, Buddha

Georges Family So sorry for your loss. I always will think of Pam and George on the dance floor, especially when we had dances at the old Legion. George thank you for your service for our country.

We are quite saddened to hear of George's passing. He was a really good guy and like me, he went through "hell on earth" with many pain/health issues. I remember George fixing a few of my electronic devices. Also remember we both attended Palmer Jr. College at same time but don't think we had any classes together. But we'd always greet each other coming & going. Our sincere condolences go out to Pam & Family. He will be truly missed.
