Sorry to hear about George, he visited us at our place quite often while building your new home at the lake.
You are in our thoughts and prayers.

We are neighbors down the street. Bob enjoyed his talks with George. He was quite the guy. We are so sorry for your loss. Words are
so hard to find when someone’s heart is breaking. If only there were more, know we would send it to you.
Prayers and hugs your way.

I knew George as a neighbor here on Applegate Dr in Helena. He was the only neighbor who would spend the time to chat. He transformed a bare piece of land into a piece of art. He always was outside watering and taking care of the land. I shall truly miss our conversations!

Missed being with you for the graveside service for my dear brother George. I trust your pastor was faithful to the Word; and that the service was a blessing. I have brother George’s picture and I’m so glad for it. It reminds me of when we were last together. I hope Saturday is a good day, both for weather and the blessing of friends for you and the boys’ families and friends.
Love to you all – we’ll be in touch,
Mel and El

Naoma Jensen Hoyt says
Dear Aunt Donna and Boys,
I am so sad that Uncle George is gone. He was always my favorite uncle; and I actually got a chance to tell him that a couple of years ago when he was at Daddy’s visiting and we had a moment for hugs and to shed some tears together! It is wonderful to know that, while we’ll miss him for now, we’ll see him again!
With love,
Naoma

I was sorry to read about your Dad. Many memories of him as a Bozeman police officer back in our glory days. I hope all the good memories outweigh your days of grief. God bless.
