Our hearts feel heavy, but this photo of George actually helped life some sorrow-- the forever Florida Gator hat that we all knew and loved, the kind eyes, the expression of " I am always there" An amazing man following his faith, family and friends. ..he lives on in his beautiful family... love and prayers .. Annie and Tom
