We do miss and think of George. I remember when he and my son Randy used to sit at the bar at my house talking. Sometimes I'd get up in the morning and he was still at my house. He was quite q character.

Geo was one of my favorite people to be around. I always felt safe if he was around, he would take care of anybody around him. He was so kind, funny and smart. We’d been out of touch the last years but I’ll always remember him. My deepest sympathies to his mother and family.
