I had the great privilege of knowing "Mr. George" when I worked with (and then for!) his daughter at Children's Campus. What a loving man! He always had a smile and a "How ya doin' sweetheart?" for each of us. You couldn't help but smile and laugh with him when he was around. My condolences to Mr. George's family, especially Ms. Lottie and all of the Schieffers.
Love,
Miss Jackie
