Ms. Mary Ann and family. We are so sorry to hear of Mr. George’s passing. We shared some great times together during softball season. We will be praying for all. Our deepest sympathies. Jesse & Sophie
Mary Ann you and your family are in our thoughts and prayers.
Mary Ann, I will be praying for peace and comfort for you and all of your family. I will also miss seeing George with you at Mass at St. Jude. I know that your’s and Jimmy’s parents had a long time friendship from childhood days.
Mary Ann, our thoughts and prayers are with you and all of your family. This is so sudden, its seems as just a couple of weeks since we saw you both. George was such a great guy. He took a lot of kidding from several of us. Playing ball at the field just caticorner from his home, and George being called, by his mother, to come in, as it was time for supper. That was the end of the game, because George owned all of the bats and balls.
Also playing fast pitch softball, against him, for so many years. Later George managed the Little League team that included Kevin, Kyle and our son Chris. May GOD grant George salvation, and welcome him into His Heavenly home for an eternal life as a member of the Family of GOD.
I met George at Bayou Din. We played many rounds of golf together over the years. I always enjoyed his company. My condolences to the family.
Dear Maryann,
We are so very sorry for your loss. We enjoyed all of our visits with you and George so much.
He will be sorely missed. Love, Jim and Susan
