Although it has been well over fifteen years since I last seen George, he was a wonderful man I respected. More importantly, for well over forty years, George was a loving friend of our entire family. George was the first person I trusted to cut off my first ponytail when I was twenty years old. I continued to trust George until he retired from the industry. I'm sad I did not keep in touch. :-(

Rest in peace my friend. Give my father a big kiss. <3

He was one of my favorite cousins. He was kind, witty and funny, caring, nurturing, and when he was annoyed, he gingerly let others know it lol. I loved him... a real gem of a person. I feel blessed to have had him in our family.

I love you cousin. Rest with the best... we'll be together again.
Love Steven

I miss you my Dear Friend of 36 years. Forever in my memory, for you were an awesome Friend, Man. I miss your witt, humor for you always made me laugh. Always you were willing to listen and advise. You're passing to a better place where there is peace and no pain. I cannot describe the pain I feel of losing George as a friend. But I know He is in a much better place and more than likely saying, "don't be sad for me, I'm free". I miss you more than anyone knows..................til we meet again.
Thank you for your friendship.
