God Bless you, George, and may He keep you safe, Joannie.
George was always one of my favorite pilots during my PNA days and I'll raise a toast to him at the reunion. "Syd"(the last Dispatcher standing)

So sorry to hear such sad news. He was such a fine person, and I enjoyed seeing him when I was visiting in Atlanta. My thoughts are with all of you.

Dear Joannie and Family:
"Go Cares for You At This Time of Sadness"
God can lift the sorrow that you carry
your arms must ache from such a heavy load.
Let Him fill your cup with living water...
let Him walk beside you on the road.
Even when you feel the most alone,
God is there for you.
He knows you have questions,
He knows you are grieving,
But he want you to know that He is always with
you....always loving you."
We loved both you and George with all our hearts and the world has lost a true gentleman
and wonderful person. Our thoughts and prayers
are always with you and the boys. Much love, Bob and Martha Hutchinson

Joanie, What a blessing that the Lord called Pop home on Easter. We will all miss the wonderful man he was here on earth, but will rejoice with him in Heaven. We will continue to be blessed with the sweet memories from church, the annual Holiday bash and times with the family. Much love to you, Scotty, Carol and the children. Ken, Margaret and Ian.
