I was floored to hear from my Mom that George had passed away. While I hadn't seen him since the mid 90's in Denver, I'll always smile when I think of him. He had a beautiful spirit.We had so many great times together that I wouldn't know where to to start. No doubt, he'll be so missed by all who knew him. My deepest sympathies to all of the Trucco family.

Sincerely,

Vic O'Keefe
