Dear friends and family of George, It is through our faith in Jesus Christ that we know you are in a better place, probably getting your tee time set to play the fairways of Gold. Although I never really had the honor of meeting you face to face, I do know how much you meant as a friend (brother) to my brother Billy Jack and how much he is going to miss those golf games and travel to Las Vegas that you all did together. I give thanks to God for the time he spent with you, because you so enriched his life. May Jesus Christ wrap his loving arms around your family and give them comfort.



P.S. Have an open tee time available because we will see you again.

Sincerely,

Ron & Lynne Ebersole

and Family
