My deepest sympathy to Naomi and family. I was so blessed to have known George Morrow.. he was such an amazing man. Always had a smile on his face and a twinkle in his beautiful sky blue eyes. He and his bride of 18 years- Naomi were volunteers for h2u-Health, Happiness You at MountainView (Senior Friends). They were so in love with each other-so very fortunate to have had a second chance for love after the loss of their first spouses. Naomi being a retired Nurse cared for George and always kept his health her top priority. Together they have been a wonderful example of how loving each other so much-it overflows and they wanted to share their love with others, which they did by volunteering at h2u. George's life was full with Love and Happiness! As he would say to me- "Kid I am on borrowed time and everyday is a gift" Thank You George for being you- I will miss you dearly! Big Hugs Rita
