Please accept my heartfelt sympathy. I have very fond memories of George ... always telling me jokes, and laughing at them as he was telling me, before he even finished. I will say that is my fondest memory of him. When I think of him, that always makes me smile. You are all in my heart and thoughts at this very difficult time.
Love you all.
