Anyone who met George instantly liked him as he was just the kind of guy you felt like you had been friends with forever. He always had a smile for you. George and Tom shared a friendship that revolved around his computer. They would talk for hours about it and Tom would work out any problems he had. Sadly our friendship had distance put between us as we had to move away. But we never forgot George & Patty. He was always willing to help with anything he could and had done so for us many a time. George we hold your memory in our hearts and always will. You will be missed by so many that loved you and cared for you. Goodbye our Friend.
