To Mike and the extended Thiel Family,
I am sorry to hear about the passing of George, the patriarch of a wonderful family. I only had the pleasure of meeting George, (and Peggy) once in person. I used to work for Mike, one of George's sons. There was never a doubt that Mike so admired his Dad, loved him, and respected him.
I can't even imagine how proud George must have been of Josh and Matt!!
May George RIP. Sending prayers for all during this time.

My deepest sympathy and prayers go out to George's family and his many, many, many friends. I met George while working at Christenson's in the late 70's. I liked him immediately. SO kind, so respectful and ALWAYS a smile on his face! He was a hardworking man who took pride in everything he did. His love and devotion for his family was everything to him. What an outstanding man he was. May God bless George's soul over and over again for all the good he did while he was here with us....
