We have been George and Judy's neighbors for 13 years. George was an incredible man. He was always very kind to our family when we spoke. Even into his old age he was a spry man who was out doing his yard work, even a little stubborn when my husband insisted on giving him a hand. We envy that about George. He was a happy soul and made our children laugh. We love you Grandpa George my kids would like to say. We are blessed to have known you. Rest In Peace.
