We are very saddened by the loss of George
He was a good friend and we enjoyed the time we were able to spend together.
He was a great cook & when he & Darlene came up north he did all the cooking was the 1st time in 20 years I got the weekend off.
He enjoyed golfing with Joe , Dave & Larry last summer.
He was a good friend and he will be truly be missed but not forgotten
Will be in our hearts forever.
Love Vicki & Joe Cwiek
