I am so very sorry for your loss. I hadn't seen George in a few years, but always held him close. He was my daughter Talia's " adopted" Grandpa George, for which I was always grateful, as my daughter's grandparents passed too soon for her to really know them at all. We have a wooden reindeer that George made some years ago, that we fill with greenery and lights at Christmas. This year it will blaze in his memory! I wish I could be there with you tomorrow, but know that I am with you in...

Our prayers are with you all.

Dear Elaine, Patty, Bill, Elise, Grant, Eric, Sarah and Sal,

I am thinking a lot about you this afternoon but am comforted by the fact that you have each other and the other members of your family as you think about your dad and grandfather. I have vivid memories of him at Christmas when we played poker and he talked about his experiences in the army.

I am very tempted to jump in my car and drive down to be with you tonight. I guess, though, the best we can do is send love...

To the family,

Our deepest sympathy for your lost. Still remembered the times they came to the farm.
