It's hard to believe that George is gone. He was a very sweet man and I have a lot of fond memories hanging out with him and Brenda at the house, horse barn or the warehouse. His heart-felt testimony at Brenda's service was so sincere and a blessing to me. He loved to give me fishing advice and it was always helpful. I'm praying that he is with The Lord and that I will see him again in Glory.

I met George a few times through Angela. I remember how easy he was to talk to. Nice man.

I was very sorry to hear about the loss of George. I will miss his smile and our talks when he would deliver tackle to me. My sincere condolences to the family. Lynda Faulkner, Ja-Lyn Sport Shop
