I spent many years working with George at AM. We started every day at the coffee shop by the office. He, I, Pete, Kenny, Bob, Dave, Dean, Mike, and a few others, hid from Glenna and of course Kirk. Those were special times in our lives and George always brought smiles to our faces!! Because he always had one! He was a great guy and I was glad to have had him as a co-worker and friend!!
