George, it was a pleasure to know you. I only knew you through our contact at the Express Market but this was enough to know that you would be a good friend and someone I would like to be around. You will be missed! To your family and friends I pray for all to get closure to enable all to move on. You will continue to be in our hearts and thoughts.
