Uncle George,
Growing up as a kid I remember your love for spinach and I would turn my nose up at it! Now I love it! Also thanks for always giving up the tv so Dave and I could watch our favorite cartoons on a Tuesday night even though you wanted to watch your Wild West movies! You were a man that sacrificed a great deal so others could be happy. I love you.

Dear Uncle George:

I'll miss your humor, your smile and the way you could make us all laugh. And yes we could tell we brought you as much joy as you brought us. We'll miss your gentle manner, and your willingness to fix anything that broke (especially our bikes). You hold a special place in our hearts and l will always remember the great uncle you always were to me.

Dear Uncle George,
We will surely miss your silly grin and the twinkle in your eye as you looked fondly at each of us, your special nephews and nieces. Who will let out the loud belches and burps that made us all laugh. We all realized what a kid you were at heart. You will be sadly missed!
Love Always,

To Uncle George, Thanks for all those times that you used to pick me up and spin me around and around until the whole world was spinning. ( and my dad was saying," George!, don't be fooling around")
Love,
Your nephew, Brian
