Not sure what to say?

Art and Ellen, I was so lucky to see George at Westminster Canterbury when I had lunch with Esther McVeigh during summer 2011. He was as sharp as ever and even though I've been gone from Lynchburg for 13 years, he recognized me and gave me a hug. It was such an honor to know him. I'm glad he is at peace with your Mom.
Sending love and gratitude for fond memories of sharing St. Paul's Supper Club with your parents!

Mr. Costan was an exceptional man who always knew how to make everyone feel special in his presence. He will be missed a great deal by his Southern Air family. Our prayers are with you all during this difficult time.

Sincerely,
Jerry & Amy Jennings
