Not sure what to say?

Hi Susan Geez I just heard George had passed, I can't tell you how much I loved talking horses with George! So sad I never got to meet him in person, yet seemed I knew him so well, best wishes to you and you kids, Greg Robertson

To the entire Wafer Family,

My thoughts and prayers go out to you all. I wish I were there to give you all a hug. Although I knew this day would come, I was still so saddened to hear the news that George was gone. Please know that although I could not be there, I am still thinking about him. I do regret not making a point of seeing him when I was in Denver this past summer. George touched so many lives and as one of my father's closest friends and my sister's father-in-law, we...

Susan, Megan and Kelly I just want to say I am so sorry I couldn't be at the funeral. I will never forget George, eveytime he would see me he would say "what's up kid". He was such a great human being and like many others I will miss him very much. J.R. Arnett

Susan, Megan and Kelley, I arrived too late to see George and left too early to go to the services. George would have said that was typical behavior for me. George was like a father and Susan like a mother and I love you all very much. Some of the best times I have ever has were with the Wafer family. I truly enjoyed my many and often enlightening conversations over Spam and coffee. Know that if ANY of you need me I will be there. I Love you and thank you for inviting me into your lives.

Susan, Mike and family...George was truly one of a kind...someone I have known since high school, our time at CSU and someone who definately made a difference in the lives of many. He will be missed but never forgotten.

Dear Susan,
I love you and George both with all my heart. Thank you for your friendship and your generosity. Words cannot express how much I will miss George or how much the two of you mean to me. I will keep you and your family in my prayers.

To Susan and the Wafer Family, I am so sad to hear George has left us. He was always so kind and generous to me and my family. His kindness helped me make one of my dreams come to realty. He was very special to me, and will be missed. We love you, George. I know heaven will be full of the horses you love and who loved you while you were with us. Thanks for making a difference in my life. Your influence and legacy will live on in my horses and my heart.

Love, Gretchen

To Susan and the Wafer Family,
I never had the pleasure and privilege to meet George, but my son did and I am forever grateful. My son is Taylor Demulder, the "significant other" to George's grandaughter Katie Wafer. Over the almost 2 years that Katie and Taylor have been together, Taylor visited with "Grandpa George" everytime he was in Colorado. Each time he would return home, he would share what an impact George had on him. Amongst the many impressive thoughts he felt, the most...

Dear Susan,
My heartfelt sympathy to you and your Family and I pray that the Lord will give you all strenght in this trying time.
George was one of a kind and I'm so glad I met him and could call him a friend.
If there is anything I can do to help, please don't hesitate to let me know.
Love,
Woody
