Dear Bruce & Sharon & your families, and the Sproul families: We extend our sincere condolences to you on the passing of George (or Geordie as we always called him). We always enjoyed our chats with both your Mom & Dad over the years, and shared some cute doggie stories with them too. George & Ilene were one of those couples that always brought a smile to our face when we thought of them, and that will always continue. Godspeed Geordie.

Sincere sympathy in the passing of your Dad and Grandpa. You were guaranteed a smile and a chat when you would cross paths with George and Eileen. They were a great couple and one of the Nile families for years. Thinking of you all at the sad time from a former neighbor – Joyce (Matthews) Black.

To all of Georges Family.
Sorry for the loss George. He was always a delight to deal with, josh with and to just sit back and enjoy good conversation. Time keeps moving on, and eventually takes so many nice local people and George was one of them. Share the memories.
