I miss you papa! Not a day goes by where I don't think about you! I love you! I will always love you! Almost 14 years.... and I can still remember the night before you passed. It was daddy's birthday and we knew you were in pain but you put yourself aside to celebrate your son's birthday everyone came first. I love you papa - The Filthy Animal

To the Hartman family. I enjoyed knowing George and working for him at Kentwig Lanes. He was the most understanding and easy going person that I have ever known. I changed my life because of him. No bond is as great as that between a husband to wife, parent to child, and grandparent to grandchild. I have followed his example since then. To Marlene, Rich and the entire Hartman family, my heartfelt sympathy.
