Carol Story
So sorry for your loss! George and I were friends when we were 12 year old kids. I went to St. Mary’s for one year, in the 7th grade, and lived down the street from George. I have very fond memories of learning to play tennis together, and going to a small local amusement park to swim and enjoy the paddle boats on a hot day. But my favorite memory is when George asked his neighbor to show us his Austin Healey sports car in his garage, which he did. Since George and I shared a love of cool cars, it was magical seeing the Austin Healey up close! And it’s no surprise to read about his cool high school car. My family moved to California the summer I turned 13, so I never saw George again. But, the fun and adventure we shared as 12 year old kids has stayed in my heart all these years. I’m saddened to read of his passing, and hope his family takes some comfort in knowing a little bit more about how his spirit and light spread joy. Rest In Peace my dear childhood friend! Carol
