nancy,george,andy,megan & family you all know that I will always remember george.we spent a lot of years together,doing things we should do & some that we shouldn't have done.we laughed together,fought together,worked together,and yes even cried together.I could write a book on our adventures together. If I needed him he would be there, If he needed me I would be there.It has always been said (If throughout your life you have one person that you can call a true friend, then you are a rich man) Well I found that in george. the only difference is that we loved each other like brothers. I am soooo sorry to see him go.we thought that we would have many more adventures together,you kids better always remember,the lessons he taught you as you were growing up,because in my book there is no better man than your dad!!! he will be greatly missed but always loved. I just feel sorry for the people who never got to know him, love aunt carol,uncle chris krause

To my dearest family, some things I'd like to say...
but first of all, to let you know, that I arrived okay.
I'm writing this from heaven. Here I dwell with God above.
Here, there's no more tears of sadness; here is just eternal love.

Please do not be unhappy just because I'm out of sight.
Remember that I'm with you every morning, noon and night.
That day I had to leave you when my life on earth was through,
God picked me up and hugged me and He said, "I welcome you."

It's good to have you back again; you were missed while you were gone.
As for your dearest family, they'll be here later on.
I need you here badly; you're part of my plan.
There's so much that we have to do, to help our mortal man.

God gave me a list of things, that he wished for me to do.
And foremost on the list, was to watch and care for you.
And when you lie in bed at night, the day's chores put to flight.
God and I are closest to you....in the middle of the night.

When you think of my life on earth, and all those loving years
because you are only human, they are bound to bring you tears.
But do not be afraid to cry; it does relieve the pain.
Remember there would be no flowers, unless there was some rain.

I wish that I could tell you all that God has planned.
But if I were to tell you, you wouldn't understand.
But one thing is for certain, though my life on earth is o'er.
I'm closer to you now, than I ever was before.

There are many rocky roads ahead of you and many hills to climb;
but together we can do it by taking one day at a time.
It was always my philosophy and I'd like it for you too...
that as you give unto the world, the world will give to you.

If you can help somebody who's in sorrow and pain,
then you can say to God at night......"My day was not in vain."
And now I am contented....that my life has been worthwhile,
knowing as I passed along the way, I made somebody smile.

So if you meet somebody who is sad and feeling low,
just lend a hand to pick him up, as on your way you go.
When you're walking down the street, and you've got me on your mind;
I'm walking in your footsteps only half a step behind.

And when it's time for you to go.... from that body to be free,
remember you're not going.....you're coming here to me.

Dear Nancy,

I haven't seen you in such a long time. I was saddened to read about George when I came online. I knew George many many years ago...he was always a sweet guy. On behalf of Stan and myself, I would like to extend our deepest sympathy to you during this very difficult time. There are no words that can ease the pain you are going through. Take care, you will be in my thoughts and prayers.

Jimmy, Nancy, & Family:

I am so sorry to hear about Georgie. It was quite a shock. I have many fond memories of growing up with Georgie and Jimmy. Uncle George & Aunt Ronnie were like second parents to me. It seems like yesterday we were running around and tearing up the neighborhood. And not so long ago that Georgie and I had a great conversation about what life has dealt us.

Georgie was a lot like his parents - loving, generous, carefree, laid back, and sometimes a temper you didn't want to be on the wrong side of. LOL He was a great guy.

Georgie, I will cherish the memories and remember you always. May you find peace now. I remember you telling me when your dad died that your mom and him were in heaven now doing the polka looking down on everyone smiling. Yes, I can see them dancing and hear their laughter -- and now you are with them, playing your drums.

Godspeed my friend. You will be missed. May God bless your family, loved ones, and friends and give them the strength to get through this very difficult time.

I'm only a phone call or email away if any of you need anything.

Love to all,
~Debb~

Dear Nancy and the Kull Family,

Our deepest sympathies to all of you. George was a very special man -- a man who was not afraid to wear his heart on his sleeve, and who wanted to do the right thing by his family and his friends. He was generous, loyal, kind and gentle, and he was never afraid to express his heartfelt feelings.

My last memory of George was on Christmas Day when I had the chance to speak to him by phone. When we ended the conversation he said, "I love you." It wasn't a matter-of-fact "I love you." That wasn't George. No, this was an "I love you" that was warm, expressive, and left you smiling every time you replayed the words in your mind. What a beautiful way for me to remember you. Thank you , George! (Karen)

While you will be missed, all of us have special memories that will sustain us, give us strength, peace, hope -- and yes, even make us laugh with time.

Please watch over those who need you -- your daughter, your sons, your grandchildren and most especially, Nancy, who was your best friend and the love of your life.

Your spirit will live on in them. There's no more fitting a tribute for such a special man.

Sincerely,

Karen Yakovac & Tim Kayes

Our hearts are broken. I remember the Christmas many years ago when George and Jimmy brought a tree for my widowed Mom and Bernie and I. Otherwise we wouldn't of had one. The memories are many. You will never be forgotten.
