Monday at 1PM is George's interment at the Dallas Fort Worth National Cemetery.
I am unsure if there is a scheduled gathering afterwards, but I am sure we can all get together and tell George stories over a beverage at a minimum. All are welcome.

Just a reminder, Monday at 1PM is George's interment at the Dallas Fort Worth National Cemetery. I am unsure if there is a scheduled gathering afterwards, but I am sure we can all get together and tell George stories over a beverage at a minimum. All are welcome.
Brian thanks for the reminder.
I am going to try to break-away from work and be there.
Afterwards I will have to get right back to my office, but I'd like a rain-check on a beverage toast to King George.
For those of you that were friends of George that could not attend his service today, here are a few pictures from his interment service at the Dallas-Fort Worth National Cemetery. (BTW...these pictures have the full blessing of George's wife Nicky)

George's final resting place w/Brian-Highflyer paying respects:
I've been to one funeral that I didn't even know this person served in the military. It was over the top of any other funeral I've been to even they only came for a short period to honor their fallen brother. Yeah, it was really neat and something I will never forget.
Well it took way longer than I expected, but I finally put together enough segments to accurately convey George's final thoughts about ponds, fishing, life and friendships.
Its a little long, but I don't care. I have hours more video that did not make it into this video. And if you hoist a Shiner Bock with me, I might show you the out takes, but you better be ready to laugh and cry a lot.
Here you go, George as he was; Enjoy

Brian, not only is it a lot of work and time putting together, creating and publishing a video but even more difficult when emotions are involved.
That was a great video and thank you for letting us get to know George a little better, for those like myself who never had the opportunity to meet him!
Brian that was really special. Thank you for putting it together and sharing it with us. I think I only met George 3 times, but each time he certainly left an impression on me. God Bless Him.
