George and I were classmates at Rothschild and Kendrick. George had a sweet spirit about himself as well as a huge sense of humor. My prayers go out to the Linton family and may God give you peace during your time of bereavement.

I met George freshman year in high school. And we remained very close from that point on. He always kept me laughing, but I'll cherish most the side of him that others rarely saw. I'll never forget talking on the phone all night when he would babysit for his sister, or the fact that he was the first friend to call the hospital when I had my son and was already at my house waiting the day I came home! I thank God for giving me a true friend who stood by side during those times. George will always have a special place in my heart. My prayers go out to his family. May God continue to bless and keep you. R.I.P G-Money!

I have known George since i was a little girl growing up on the drive. I pray that God give the family strength to get through these trying times and know that he makes no mistakes. Thru it all he is still a Good and Awesome GOD. May he send his comforter to comfort the family and all of George's friends lets all remember "To be absent from the body is to be present with the Lord" and nothing could ever be greater than that!

The Linton Family
After awhile the ache will mend
Pain, sorrow and grief shall end
Smiles like sunshine will follow tears
While laughter shall bring on passing fears.
The hearts that now shiver in sorrow and pain
Will tremble with happiness again.
AFTER AWHILE...
