My condolences are with you Geri, Barb, Donna, and Mama. May you take comfort knowing that an angel is watching over you.

Geri,

I am so sorry and sad to hear of Geroge's passing. I was a childhood friend of his and his family for many years growing up in the Bucktown-Wicker Park area, but as the years passed, we've lost touch. The last time I had seen him, Dianne & Barbara was at my own father's funeral a few years ago. It was great to see him at that time. My heart goes out to you and George's mom and sisters. You have my deepest, deepest sympathy and I will keep you all in my prayers.
