I thought I knew George all of my life, but it was only 62 years. I am proud that we were friends all of those years. He had a truly golden heart. I will miss him!

George, I will really miss seeing your smiling face and sweetness like sugar. We have known each other since kindergarten at Maple Grade School. Wish we were back and could start over, but would probably do the same all over again. Love to you my friend forever, Shelley

I extend my condolences to the family during this difficult time. May you be comforted by the promise of the resurrection and the end of sickness and death forever. God makes this wonderful promise at Isaiah 25:8 where it states that he will “swallow up death forever.” I hope this message is of some consolation.
