George or Victor as he was known then in 1957 when we met in Montreal as new immigrants to Canada, has been my friend ever since. But then our friendship changed when he enlisted in the US military, in late? 57 or early 85. In the beginning I heard a bit of his military experiences in Hawaii and then also in Georgia with all the snakes there. In the 60's he visited me in San Francisco, then we some how lost contact but due to the internet I found him again, now married and living in South Carolina, where I was able to visit him and meet Roye Lynn at their lovely house, I was attending a 3-D convention in Charleston. at the time.
George was a very special friend for as long as I knew him, It must be very hard for Roye-Lynn to deal with her loss but I wish her all the strength that God may give her to deal with her new situation in life.

Roye Lynn, You and your family are in our hearts and prayers. We were very blessed to have you and George with us at St. Andrews. Joe especially remembers the conversations he shared with George about his life in Germany and China since we lived in Berlin. You both meant so much to us and we will cherish these memories forever.

Love Always,
