Remembering my Uncle George with love and gratitude for his strong will and soft heart. For his presence and influence throughout my life. He taught me to always do the right thing just because it’s the right thing to do, no matter if anyone sees you.
He and my grandpa (his dad) both taught me the value of maintaining endurance and strength….life gets tough , you just have to get up and keep going as best as you can every day. This wasn’t something that was said so much as it was the way of life. Some would call him stubborn and stern but I saw him very much the same as his dad a confident, passionate and proud man who truly loved family, close friends, The Broncos and God.
I will miss but always treasure my Uncle George!

Grandpa!
I can’t believe this.
Im heart broken..
But I find peace in knowing that your dad and Jimmy were there to welcome you. Also my mom..
You and I always had a special connection…
You were more of a dad than anyone has ever been to me! You taught me how to tie my shoes.
How to read.
How to ride a horse.
You taught me the value of a dollar, work ethic morals that honesty was right that respect was given no matter what..
You showed me that not all men were bad and that someone could love me unconditionally.
You never gave up on me through my struggles
You loved me more you never gave up on me!!! Even after everyone else did.
You welcomed me into your home when they all told u not too. You did not ever care about what anyone said you believed me. And in me.
Today im sober grandpa and I will continue to be for me and my children but to honor you the only father I really have ever known.
