My Condolences to you Mrs Yvette and your family. Mr. George was a very sweet person. The last time we were together, it was nothing but laughter. He will be greatly missed😭💔🌹
Our deepest sympathies to you Vette and the rest of the family. George was a special person who we have had the pleasure to know and count as a friend.
Hey vette,
I worked with you for many years and you always talked about your husband he was such a good man. I’m so sorry for your loss but keep your head up high. Need anything let me know.
Sending prayers to the family. I had the pleasure of taking Mr. George fishing and it was a blast I’m honored to have met him what a wonderful and awesome man. Keep your lines tight up there Mr. George.
My Dad was an awesome man. My Dad had a gruff side..but I saw right through that. He was a Teddy Bear. He loved Vette more then life itself and all of his animals and his family. He was just his own man and had his own way of doing things. He lived a simple life and loved it that way. I was so proud of him that he was able to turn his life around and truly become the person he always was. He was so handsome his whole life..even in the end..and had a wild side. But Vette was able to tame him and he wouldn't have had it any other way. My Dad would call me every day…unless he was sick..then I called him. I miss him so much and wish I could talk to him one more time. My Dad was a free spirit..a rebel..but had the biggest heart. Told me he loved me every time we talked. I will miss that most of all. I love you Dad…rest in peace.
We will miss you, George, but the sound of your laughter will remain in our hearts forever. You had a heart of gold and loved Vette, your family, and all of you furry and feathered babies beyond words. Everytime I saw you, I saw Daddy! You were his clone! Don't know how Heaven is going to handle both of you up there- LOL, but I am sure that incredible fish stories will be shared. I will think of you each time I drop a line in the water! You were truly loved and I will cherish the memories we shared. Give Mom and Daddy a big hug from me. God bless ❤️
Hi George! I don’t know if you will ever see this, but wanted to say that you were and you are a special person and a great dad. No one is ever perfect but Jesus on this earth. You only spoke to me once on the phone when Georgette had surgery on her hip. You made me smile and laugh at the same time. You married Vet, a wonderful person, have 3 beautiful children and many animals. It will be a moment before I get to meet you in person, but for you it is only a blink of an eye and you will once again be with your loved ones. Enjoy Heaven, we will see you soon and I look forward to meeting you in person!! We will see you soon! Love, Kelly
