Not sure what to say?

It was an honor to have known George. He was a great friend and I thought of him as a brother. He lived with dignity and was a great man that left a legacy behind that can be attained by few. He was a proud family man and animal lover. He is greatly missed by his family and friends. When I think of him, the motorcycle rides, the camping trips, the family get-togethers, the casino trips, the work projects, the millennium wedding party, and other excursions with family and friends,...

I knew George by doing business with him for many years. A nicer guy would be hard to find. Very bright and capable and clearly an expert in his chosen field of business. My deep and sincere condolences to Mary and family.

George was an amazing person who was a friend to all and always there to help a friend. He made a difference in so many peoples lives and will be missed greatly.

Our sincere sympathies for your loss.
