George and I did a lot of things together growing up along with the other Suzanne Drive crew, very sorry to hear of George's passing. I made a lot of memories with him like hanging out at the Green Street Lounge, swimming at Sewell Circle Park, playing pinball at the 7-11 and hanging out in the Washington's backyard fixing bikes and shooting hoops. As adults we fish Lake Oconee, Lake Sinclair and Lake Blackshear together. George was a good brother, I'm going to miss him. Spider-Man.
