BY Anonymous on Jan 03, 2008 | | | | my respect for George is very high , he was a man of honor and integrity. He Joined the service to take care of his family and serve his country. His death was uncalled for as so are all the other soldiers who died for this country. He loved his family more than anything and wanted only the best for them. He was a good man, a loving husband and father. He will be missed. His wife and children will miss him greatly, I hope they remember all the good times to help them thru their sorrow. my love goes out to them.I will never forget you Geo.
