Our deepest sympathy and love are with you all for the loss of Mr. George. Although we haven't seen any of you in a long time, you have been in our thoughts from time to time. Memories of the store on Center and Hwy 72, our days as neighbors and friends on Quinn Road and seeing Mr. George on the Tech Tire truck will always be cherished. Again our love and respect.
