I worked with George back in the 80's and 90's great friend. We faithfully went fishing almost every weekend at the Findlay reservoir in my little 16 foot outboard boat. Always had wonderful time even if the fish weren't cooperating. Time can seperate people but Great memories bring you back together. Praying for a peace for the family, a peace that only God can bring. John 3:16-21.
