Dear Donna and Family,
I was very sorry to hear of George's passing.
He truly epitomized the term gentleman in how he lived each day and in the many ways he touched others with his kindnesses. The beauty of a life well lived like his is that it is never forgotten. Please be assured of my thoughts and prayers for you and yours during this difficult time. Fondly,

I had the pleasure of playing golf with George and Donna at Torrey Pines Golf Course in San Diego, CA at a Paletta family reunion. I also enjoyed a harbor cruise that same night around San Diego with many Lowell friends. George and Donna " cut a rug"" all night long, on the cruise. If there had been a contest, George and Donna would have won all the awards. It was so much fun watching two very good dancers having fun. George, Rest in Peace, Donna, please know you have many friends who admire, love and support you. Affectionately, Cathy Ronan

To The Leahey Family,
I had the honor of knowing your father when I had worked at Vesper from 1990 to 2001.
He was a Great Gentleman and very easy to talk with. And we had plenty of laughs.
He took very good care of me, when I did worked there.

A good heart stopped beating; the soul of a fine Gentleman was welcomed into Heaven. May the embrace of your loving family give you strength and friends comfort you, as you adjust to the separation from your husband and father whom you dearly love. With Sincere Sympathy
