Not sure what to say?

Miss you, G. Love always. R.

I am saddened to see you are no longer with us, George. Damn cancer, gone too soon.

I miss you everyday George. I miss your droll wit and humorous commentary on the everyday stuff of life.

On reading Mike Fred's newest post, it occurs to me that I spent a lot of time in Silver Lake as a child even though I lived in Akron. My step dad lived in Silver Lake. I probably met George before I thought that I had, with friends at the Annual Silver Lake Street Fair every summer, or with my friends around the neighborhood when I was there. We were the exact same age. But I really knew George later from Hammer Damage, and I also just loved THE MUNSTER'S theme!

I still think about you! I will forever cherish the short time I was in Kil Kooley with you. The music was not my style but the chance for us to finally get to play together outweighed that and I was thankful for the challenge and your patience with me. You made me a better guitarist! I will never forget when you invited me out to Filthy McNastys yo see the new band you were with and when I walked in you were playing a punk version of THE MUNSTERS theme. Brilliant! Miss you!

When I think of George I think of Honeysuckle bushes and long walks home. His wit and talent and wisdom and kindness shall remain with me forever. Love, Flooze

George, I still remember, at that very last guitar show that you attended, how you agreed that we should get together someday to make some noise. Sometimes someday isn't soon enough. Much regret for not making it happen. Peace eternal, Bob Cesare

Great to know and play with you, friend. We all miss you. R.

Miss you, buddy.
