MESSAGES OF CONDOLENCE / DONATIONS

Roxane Brunette - August 24, 2024

Dear Ron and Lisa I am so sorry for your loss. I know you and George were close. George had a way to bring anyone out of their shell in his presence. He would start a joke off and you would end up laughing with him before the punch line. He had you in tears and your sides hurting by the time you said goodbye. I had a lot of good laughs with George and Renie at Careys parties. I am glad I have those memories. I am so sorry Ron again for your loss. God speed in healing. You and Lisa have had your hardships of losses. We all grew up together. They are our losses too. Thinking and praying for all of you at this difficult time.
