Dear Susan, Mark, Doug and Garrick, We're so sorry for the loss of your dad. Uncle George was always such a fun and happy man. I always enjoyed being around him and getting the chance to talk with him. You all have endured alot of loss recently and I'm truly sorry for that. But, your dad and mom raised 4 great Christian children and I know that they are extremely proud of all of you. I hope you know that Kim, the kids and I would be in Athens tomorrow if we possibly could, but I'm flying all this week and won't be back in Atlanta until mid-afternoon on Friday. Please know that we're all praying for you. We love all of you, Tom (Martin), Kim, Ashley, Joseph and Allison Lindsey

Dear Stiles Family,
Kenneth & I wanted to express our sympathy to your family. I met George at last year's Christmas party at the Galley Restaurant & so enjoyed his stories. He was a gentleman & seemed to care deeply for his family & employees. I am sure he will be missed & remembered with sincere fondness by all.
in Christ, Kenneth & Teresa Jackson
