No day comes to an end and I dont think of you George. You left a sun generated lightbulb on my mailbox which is alive when I come home at night. You will not be forgotten, never.

George was the kind of person that we should all try to be like. He was a kind person who was always there to help anyone at any time. you could see him snow blowing a neighbors driveway or fixing a broken mail box or trying to help repair anything that moved. He will be missed by and the world was a much better place with him in it.
