I offer my condolences on the passing of George. We met at the "celebration of life" for his brother Duane. Virginia and Scott, Duane´s children, spoke very fondly of him. They made even more great memories when George and Barbara hosted them at their home in TX after the passing of their father. His warmth and smile are imprinted on my heart. May his memory be a blessing.

George was a man with a huge heart! I have many fond memories of time spent with the Denmans at Mount Carmel,Omaha and Axtell. I was hoping that Mom and I would be able to be with you today but due to the weather that wont be possible. My thoughts and prayers are with all of you. Love Karla

Was surprised George and Barbara volunteered at their desk and then Mr. D. was in the hospital; what a day that must have been! We will miss such a fine fellow as all that in the Rio Grande Valley of Texas, I'll tell you.

Dear Barbara and Family,
We are so sorry to hear of George's death. He was always so full of life and that is how we will remember him. We will never forget the many times we stayed at your home. You both made us feel welcome when we came to the city. George was truly a gentle giant and we know there will be a very big void in your family without him. Know that we love you and care about your loss.
With Love, Mont, Ruth and family
