I will miss George. I came to Fort Pierce Florida when his late sister-in-law (Sarah Spann) died. Sarah Spann is Mrs Reeves sister and my mother, late Lula Jefferson Coe Speed first cousin. What was so nice about George he let mei see Mrs. Reeves. Mrs Reeves is blind and so he was very kind to open his family's door and led me to see my blind second cousin after 40-years.
We love you family and we are praying for each of you. May the Lord continue to comfort each of you.
My condolence to the Reeves family, May the peace of God be with you during your time of bereavement. Mr. George friendship to the Hamilton was greatly appreciated and we will miss him dearly.
