Janet & Family,
You and George shared so much with us at the lake. Parties and informal lazy weekends are just some of the great memories we shared. We always felt warm and welcome in his presence.
Thoughts and prayers from my family, Dad, and my sister Cathy and hers for a tremendous loss to our extended beach family.
Yours in prayer and sympathy,
Hall & Sweet Families

Janet and Kukla family
I will always remember George for his X-Mas parties and opening up his home to so many crazy relatives and family members. I enjoyed numerous conversations with George.
Janet, he most certainly lived a great life, not only with his family and friends but also his business associates as an entrepreneur. His hands were large but his heart was enormous.
With our deepest sympathy,
Davitt Family

Janet and family, George was one of those angels that live among us, touching us all in ways that only God could. The good news about angels is they stay with us, long after the physical presence has left us. He is right there with you still. He will be the one, with his calm and gentle manner, holding you up during this difficult time. He will be dearly missed.
