Not sure what to say?

13 years ago, seems like yesterday you madebyo7 journey into eternal life. The rush of the wind up the Hudson River as "they came to take you home" thank you for watching over Kim, Jake, me and aunt Vange Barbie

Mr Makris you can see from heaven all that we are now going through on earth.... I wish you were here to help us navigate through...

George was an interesting guy. He once gave me a tour of his basement collection of car, from an army jeep still in a crate to a Ferrari, they were all beauties but his true love other than his wife was his two 1932 Cadillacs one completly unrestored original and a silver and blue Better than New restoration.

I was wondering what Georges Status was when I found this page on the net. Sorry to hear of his passing he was a great fellow. One time years ago maybe forty years ago he gave me a tour of his basement garage in Old Brookville. What a collection of cars! Jeeps in a box, Ferraris and of course all his Cadillacs. Years later I bumped into him again and he offered me several cars for free. A 1962 Chrysler 4 dr hardtop Station Wagon and a Pontiac Grand Prix but at the time I had no room for them...

I still think of him often and really miss our phone calls. Hope all is well with the family.

I was thinking about Mr Makris the other day
What an ambitious man. Helping out almost anyone who needed to be heard.

What a loving kind man.

A true friend...well remembered..John and Helen Potts
