George Wilson

so sorry to hear of George's passing! I loved working with him and loved his sense of humor... he always had something important to tell me or teach me when I came to visit. He lived a great life!

SO SORRY TO LEARN OF GEORGE'S PASSING. HE NOT ONLY WAS MY BASEBALL COACH BUT A MENTOR AND A FRIEND.

I'M SORRY TO SAY THAT I MUST WORK SATURDAY AND WILL NOT BE ABLE TO ATTEND THE MEMORIAL SERVICE. BARBARA AND MY PRAYERS ARE WITH YOU.
GOD BLESS,
