Dear Helen, Anna & Family,

We watched the livestream of Uncle George´s service today. It was a very moving occasion and we know George would have very proud of his family´s tributes and stories. I knew a bit about George´s life but not a lot of his early years and the service filled in a lot of those gaps.

I have always had a very soft spot for George. He was always very kind to me and we interacted many times over the years. I will forever treasure the memories of staying with him in Invercargill, Inglewood and Gisborne and the numerous other times we met up.

Sending all our love on this very sad but special day for you all. Take care until we meet up again in the hopefully not too distant future.
