Dear George, thank you for all the great times and smiles you always showed when ever you were around. To my cousins I am truly sorry for your loss and hope that God may grant you peace in your hearts. Things always happen for a reason and we dont understand why, but someday you will understand why, it might be days, months or years. George is in a better place and is not in pain anymore. I am proud to serve in the National Guard and know that i am following a family tradition. May God Bless...

grandpa,i miss you

My husband Steve and I worked with George at Plasma Tec. We can owe our 20 year marriage to George as he was the one who talked my shy husband into askiing me on our first date. He was a wonderful guy and will be truly missed. It has been a while since we have seen George and we are very sorry to hear of his loss.
With sympathy,
Steve and Sharon Johnson

George was a great man, loving father.. and i know a great grand father. He is is in a wonderful place now.. and i know that doesn't take away the pain. I thank him for teaching me everything i know about boats. I will never forget that. I think him and my brother are fishing in heaven right now.

Fond memories...Georgie porgie pudding pie, kiss the girls and make them cry! But I never cried when I got caught at kissing tag when we were kids.

Blessings to all of you he left behind.
