“WABANA”! 

This was George’s exclamation when times were good, bad or indifferent. When it was time for him to throw a bull pen, talk baseball pitching mechanics or take swings in the cage he would let the word “WABANA” out. I knew he was expressing true joy and passion for a game he loved. George, I will miss you, your infectious smile and passion and love for life.

WABANA,

Dominick “Coach” Copas

I will never forget the early morning call I received from your baby girl, her voice in a soft whisper telling me you had passed, I was in shock and heartbroken as was Bob, we were in disbelief. 
Jorge you were the greatest guy a true friend who cared about others and without a doubt an amazing Dad.

I will forever miss yet remember our morning talks at the boys school, we talked baseball, softball and family, we had our jokes, and even prayer moments but it always ended with the love of your family. 
I still can't believe that you are gone and I will never see you at the school again, but something tells me you will be there and somehow I'll know.
I promise to keep in constant touch with Vanessa and the kids, I will always be here for them. 
Rest in peace my sweet friend and one day we will meet again in heaven and pick up where we left off
I'm blessed to have known you and grateful for the opportunity to of been a part of your life 
Many Blessings to your family

My brother, I don’t even know where to start. We grew up together, from freshmen in high school to fathers and leaders of our homes. I laugh thinking about all the crazy things I dragged you into throughout our youth and our days at Michelin. Thank you for being the friend you were to me, my kids, and family. Thank you for always being there for me. It breaks my heart to know you’re no longer a phone call away but I know you’re in a better place. Rest easy my friend, we got the kids down here. Love you man. Until we meet again in paradise, your memory will always be with us. 

I will always remember Jorge for being an avid baseball fan and his smile. No matter how busy we were at Michelin he was always smiling and happy to be working. Jorge and Danny always treated me with kindness and respect.  We went to lunch quite a few times.... talking about our times runs we where pulling and he was always talking about baseball. We would joke around about what was going on in the world at the time. I cried and I was stunned about the news on jorge. Jorge friend requested me on Facebook.....I accepted right away . We talked about how life was going for each other and he was genuinely happy i had a wife and son we talked about getting the kids together one day and catching up . I wish and I would give anything to have some time with you again jorge we never got to meet up but I always and will always consider you and Danny great guys . Our days of tire pullers is gone but not forgotten.... just like your smile,jokes and kindness Jorge.... I will never forget you bro. Love you and I will see you again.  Love Armando G.
