Not sure what to say?

I want to thank the Universe Nature, and my ancestors for sending a messenger to remind us of who, what, and where we came from. Mr. Jolly came into my life when I was fresh out of college and I am thinking I am on the right path of societal things. Until I met my mentor...He changed my life forever. I took the perm out and started to love me and my people even if we do not trust and love ourselves. Mr. Jolly taught me the reason for all our disunity. I thank the Divine Poweres that be for a...

God Bless you and your family.

I was sorry to hear of the passing of George, we worked together as Family Liaisons he will be missed. God Bless your family.

God bless the Jolly family at this time and keep you strong. It seems like it was just yesterday when George and I went to our high school prom in that Mustang,George drove. George became a great man, but he was a great men that night,because if not for him I wouldn't have made it to the prom.I'll see you in heaven George

Peace be with you.

A true friend who taught me a lot about Africa and the Egyptian Empires and the need to educate our children about our heritage. Your friendship will sorely be missed.

My thoughts and prayers are with you in your time of grief. May your memories bring you comfort.

To the Family: My deepest sympathies are extended to you. I first knew George D. Jolly as an activist,a serious and dedicated Cuyahoga Community College student who even then was a serious researcher of Black history. Over time we learned much Egyptian history from him. A gentleman, an intellectual,a lecturer, an historian, a scholar, and a fine Black male role model, we shall dearly miss him.
