I remember George when I was a young boy living on Alvina Ave. i would go over to his house before he left for work and he would let me load his service revolver, and also play with his two lovely daughters. I often thought of George and his family when he moved away. My thoughts and Prayers are with his wife and Marilyn & Ellen.

(Little)Marilyn, Ellen & Family,

So sorry to hear about your Dad. I remember the good times we had on Alvina Avenue-way back when. Our Dad passed this past November, so we know how you miss him. Our thoughts and prayers are with you at this difficult time. God's blessings to you & your family.
