Dearest Aunt Nancy, Chris, Katie, Patty and Georgie Jr. and Families, we are deeply sorry for the passing of Uncle George. These are times that none of us ever look forward to, since it means losing someone we love very much. But we thank God for giving us Uncle George and all the wonderful times we had together as families. I know deep in my heart that Ed, Frank, Michael and now George are all reunited talking about old times and what a great life they all had with their wives, children and grandchildren. I know this will be difficult for each of you, but you will be in our prayers, as we ask God to comfort you and to place Uncle George in His Kingdom, where he shall remain with Him now and forever.Aunt Nancy, Aunt Terri ask me to forward all her love and will be in contact with you. . She will keep Uncle George and your family in her Prayers. <br>God Bless and All Our Love, Johnny and Patty Larkin, John Jr, Meghan, and ColleenTerri Larkin
