Demi and Dayson once gave you a sweatshirt that said "Grandpa-How God blesses children". In the case of you Dad, the life you lived was God's way of blessing us all. Words can not express how you touched the lives of those who's paths you crossed. We miss you greatly but know that you will grace our presence once again in the heavenly kingdom. I love you Dad.

Yes! Even the Cadilac dealer, gave you the Respect any Honorable man deserves. Maybe, on reason, why Long Beach Cadilac Service went out of business.

We find comfort in knowing that our lives have been inspired, enriched and motivated by having shared special moments with George. Your life was a blessing and a fruitful witness of God's favor shown to one of his chosen vessels.
