RIP George. I will always remember growing up across the road from you and David in Gillespies Line and I used to come over and help you with the ironing and help prepare your meals and set up the formal dining room with the fine china and silverware and candles when you were having guests for dinner. I will never forget the times as a young girl spent with you and David.
