Rick & Family, Sorry we're so far away and unable to show for George's Funeral. Your Dad was unique in a lot of ways. He left me with a million interesting memories from our years at Cowhey. I was one of the fortunate ones to see the inner "soft side" of your Dad. I'll always cherish the years I had at work with Him and the rest of the guys.
