I am sorry to hear of MR.Chaban's passing. I was a customer of his at the hardware store. He was real helpful to me when I had question. He had a really cool store! Not any left like his anymore. He was a nice man.

My Dearest Aunt Winnie,

You and Uncle George have been a great inspiration to Marilyn and me over the years. Your loving ways to each other is reflected in the beautiful family you and George raised. A man is ultimately judge by the company that he keeps and in you he kept the finest company. In this trying time please know that we will always remember Uncle George as a member of the Greatest Generation and an Uncle with a quick wit that was always there for us. You’re in our prayers.



Brittney, Marilyn, and Chris
