George was one of my meal deliveries from Senior Services-Meals on Wheels. Over the years I saved that delivery as the last stop on my route. George and I would sit for hours and talk, George did most of the talking, about the past, his family and his lovely wife. His wit and perspective on life will be truly missed.
