We will miss you Uncle George. You are now at peace and your pain and suffering has ended. We all know that you are in a better place with many loved ones who also have passed on. The happy memories that we have shared through our growing up years celebrating Birthdays, Christmas, Easter and family gatherings will be cherished always. What a wonderful sense of humor you had, the many jokes that you shared along with all your stories will never be forgotten. You were the best dressed Uncle who was so particular and impeccable about your choices of clothing. All these memories will live on in our hearts forever. Love you always.
