Our deepest sympathies to all of you on the loss of George. I was fortunate enough to have cared for him in the hospital a couple of years ago and he was just the sweetest man. He was so proud of all of you and told me everytime I cared for him. I'll be praying for him and all of you. God Bless George and RIP, Sharon & Larry Rogers and family
