My Uncle George, my Dad's older brother, peacefully passed away after years of successfully fighting a serious illness.
Even though he was up into his 80's he would soldier through the low points and soon be feeling well enough to ride his scooter through the grocery and to join in at family gatherings.
He was interested in a wide range of subjects. He enjoyed traveling and could remember details from places on his many trips.
He liked dachshunds.
Uncle George had several collections...shot glasses, brass geese, key chains and more.
He enjoyed wood working and made many display shelves, benches and decorative figures.
He will be missed by our family. We admire him for his strength and determination during his illness. We appreciate his thoughtfulness.
At his funeral service his casket was draped with a quilt I made for him a few years back. Sort of sad to me but very special as well.
Uncle George, Rest in Peace.
