He was a good friend of my mom and dad Marge and Carl "Gus" Gustafson. They had a lot of fun together through the many years. George loved dads garden and dad even planted black eyed peas for him. He was always happy and smiling when I would see him except the last time at dads funeral. We will miss you too George. RIP

We have been friends of George for many years but of late I'm ashamed to say I have only been in touch by mail. We would very much appreciate knowing when the burial service will be held. Our sincere sympathy from this family to yours. George was certainly an interesting, amusing and unique character. He will be missed! The Carl Gustafson Family
