George and I atended many travel functions together. His always upbeat and positive approach to life made our meetings something to be looked forward to. We were in Florida when we learned of his passing. May you have the strength to bear up under this loss.

Hi Marge, I am so sorry to hear about George, I haven't lived in Southie in over six years. I haven't really been in touch with anyone there either. Me and the boy's have been living in Plymouth for almost seven years now. I just heard about George and just wanted to say I am sorry, and Thank you for all of the help and support you have given me over the years and thanks in part to you and George I have been sober for the last 23 years. You were both important to me at some of the toughest times in my life and I will forever be grateful.

Hi Marge,
Tom & I are in Florida and just heard of George's death. George was such an inspiration to all of us. His dry humor jokes will always be remembered.
We will certainly miss him.

We are so sad for you and know there will be a big hole in your life. We love you and will carry you in our thoughts and prayers.

Marge,
I was so sorry to hear about George. I wish there was something I could do to ease your pain. I'm glad you have a wonderful bunch of friends to lean on during this sad time. He will always be remembered and loved for all he did to make others happy.

Dear Phil, Jess and Mrs. Waterman: I am so very sorry to hear about your loss. It is always sad to hear about the death of someone, but when it is my long time friend's dad...it kind of hits home. Life is too short and this is proven every day. I guess it's a lesson to learn to live each day to the fullest (which I hope you do). Take advantage of nothing. And know there is a reason for everything. I hope you know that he is in Heaven and watching over and protecting you right now. With much sympathy, and love....Ann Matchem

Marge

Feel free to call anytime, my prayers are with you, Phil, Jessica, April and the rest of your family. I always felt like another member of the family, i can't count all the sleepovers when i was little. Also living downstairs for a couple of years. I loved djing with George, he was quite a pro and george always had a joke. Driving back from jobs i can't remember one time that george didn't get a lottery ticket and his reeses cup. I could go on and on.

With all my love to you and the family.
