Linda, Sure glad I stopped in and visited with George this past summer when in Vermont. We were kind of distant cousins. We worked together many years ago on Interstate 91 and spent many hours conversing over every day events and our family relationships. I very much respected his advice and most of all, cherished our friendship. God Bless your family during this unfortunately circumstance.
