Kathy
We only just heard about Jorgie as we have been out of town. Please know that you and your family are in our thoughts and prayers as you come to terms with life without him.
He was a very special man and we have so many happy memories of our all square dancing together.

Clark and I just found out about Jorgie's passing. What a great loss. We have never met a kinder or more honest man. And what a sense of humor. Both of us have always been so fond of him and have often thought about him. I wish we had kept in touch.

Kat:

I have had the pleasure of knowing Jorgie over the recent years through the CVRC Club. The Thursday breakfast that he always attended provided me many opportunities for getting to know him better. He was quite a gentleman and he will be missed by all of us. It has been a priviledge knowing him. My best to you and your family.

My dearest darling, I miss you so much. We had such a good life together. I only wish we had had more time to enjoy each other. But I know you are in a better place and you aren't in pain. You are with all of the people who went before you who loved you. As I told you so many times - you and I will always be together. Always and forever. Rest easy. And know that I am okay. I'm sad and my life will never be the same without you by my side. I love you so very much.

Topper, Bob and & I want to extend our sympathies on the loss of Jorg. We all remember so well his trips with his family to Freeport, his days of hunting on the farm in Warren, his robust laugh, and our family times when Steve and I moved to Richmond. Know that you are in our thoughts and prayers and know that the Good Lord is watching over all of you thru this difficult time. Topper, Bob, Pat Steinman Udell.
