Please know that George and Donna's work and influence has had a lasting effect on us, all the way down here in South Texas. Thanks to them both for laying the foundation in which we are constantly building.

My condolences goes out to all the Wilber family. The loss of George and Donna is a hugh one. Their leadership of establishing the very first shuffleboard magazine was a true high spot for many of the players and the community. It was my honor to have known them both and they will be greatly missed. Rest in peace and may you always be remembered.

The shuffleboard community will greatly miss George and cherish the many memories over the years of George & Donna forever. They are considered extended family by the many shuffleboard enthusiasts and players across the country that knew and loved them.

George & Donna were great ambassador's of the sport of table shuffleboard for many many years and will never be forgotten. Their dedication and sacrifices to promote the game of table shuffleboard for years was relentless.

Love you Pa!!!!
