I have been out of town for 2 weeks. George was going to do some work for me. I have counted on him for years and he had always been there for me with any little problem. I am a widow and often needed him. We always had great conversations. I know a lot of people are wondering what do to without him. A fantastic person with so much energy and care. He will be truly missed. Rest In Peace. Heaven is celebrating. My prayers are with you children he so often spoke of and was so proud!!

Olivia and family, I'm so very sorry about the passing of your dad. Try and remember all the wonderful times you shared with him. He may not be here with you physically, but he will always be in your heart. If there is anything I can do for you, do not hesitate to call me. Olivia, you are very special to me.
Love,
Mrs. Arnold
