I worked with George many years ago at was then called White Truck Sales. I also worked with Sharon there too & we sat right beside one another. It's such a small world as I also worked with George's dear granddaughter Jacqueline at MTS. I will remember George as being so kind, handsome, funny & patient! Patient as we used George's office as our coffee & lunch room. To his family you are all in my thoughts & prayers & was so very sorry to read of this kind man's passing. Rest in peace dear George. xxg - Posted by: Gayle Hassett (Agar) (Former co-worker) on: Oct 10, 2016
