I am so sorry for your loss.My prayers are with you.
Please accept my deepest sympathies for you loss. I worked with George for several years. My fondest memory is of George and the Thoms Nursing Golf Team. George was the only real golfer and the only male on the team. We may not have played very well, but we had a wonderful, fun time.
I graduated with George and worked with him at Thoms. I am so sorry for your loss. My prayers are with you.
I enjoyed working with George at Thom’s. I feel blessed to have known him. His patients and the staff loved him very much.
