Not sure what to say?

I don´t think it´s ever too late to say something kind. I am reading a biography on Johnny Carson and I just read the part re George, and I want to express my admiration and thanks for the laughs George gave me at 11:30 pm each weeknight via another who was the vehicle delivering many of George´s humorous and insightful views of the world around us. Laughter has always been my salvation from the pain and absurdities that this thing called life throws our way; so, I send my heartfelt thanks...

It certainly was my pleasure to know George. When I needed help with Richie's doctor appointments, George was always there to help us. He was full of fun and laughter and is now with his friend. God Bless you, George.

How great it was to share so many memories with you over the years I will always cherish our friendship

The memories we have of Big George always include smiles, family and a lot of food. He will be missed.

May the good time continue to roll in his honor!

Thanks for being my Dad's best friend. So many wonderful memories. You will be missed dearly.

My father was an amazing man. He taught me how to live life to its fullest. He had a great passion for everything he did. I am sure all of his friends and family in heaven are laughing loudly since he arrived there.

A man who brought so much laughter into this world should have lived--FOREVER

The greatest Uncle a guy could ask for. Will be missed greatly and thought of always...

About George's appetite... a bunch of us writers were having lunch at Roscoe's Chicken and Waffles in Hollywood. Roscoe's menu item #8 was a half fried chicken. But that wasn't enough for George. He wanted a double order. When the food came, the waitress gave George his lunch... a small plate with two lonely fried eggs. George looked at it wide-eyed. "What's this?" "Your order," the waitress said. "Two eggs." "No," cried George. "I said 'Two eights!'" (True story.)
