I will miss George dearly. George and I have been neighbors for 8 years. We spent alot of time at night by a fire in my backyard. Having a few cocktails I would just sit and listen to story after story. He also would add some jokes . He and Larry would play guitar occasionally and George would sing and truly could hold a tune.He was a damn good neighbor and I truly considered him a good friend. He was definitely a good mechanic. I will truly miss him dearly.
