To the Scales Family my most heartfelt condolenses. George was a friend of mine all my life from Northeast. We used to recall the great times we had back then.I saw him last about 3 years ago. He was a great friend and will be missed. May Gods Love comfort you in your time of sorrows.

Praise the Lord!

I was browsing through the obituary and saw George's picture. I am so sorry about his passing. I remembered him from next door doing work for his sister Mary Langhorne. He was a real friendly guy. Mrs. Mary I am just next door if you need me to do anything. I pray the Lord will comfort in the time of your sorrow.
God bless!
