My deepest condolences to Georges' entire family. I moved into the complex and turned out to be neighbors with George and Irma! George always looked after my place while I was gone and when we were able to get together we would have nice dinners, conversations about our past memories, and world events. George and Irma were very welcoming and friendly and made my move into Bay Colony truly a pleasant experience.  I will miss George and his sense of humor as well as his stories! God Bless you, George and Irma. Truly an awesome friendship, you will be missed!

I can't remember a time when you were not in our lives, Uncle George.  I can still remember your wedding day and the pretty, mint green dresses that  my sister and I wore as your flower girls.  I remember being worried at the time, that you were going to take Aunt Irma away from us, but little did we know that instead, you would become an integral part of our lives woven into the fabric of so many wonderful memories.  When our mom was sick, it was you who prayed with us and gave us the strength to get through the most painful event in our young lives.  I can also remember all of the magical times we had, with the entire family sitting around the dining room table in Fishkill for Christmas, Thanksgiving, Easter ...  you, Aunt Irma, Grandpa Gareri, Aunt Terry, Lisa, Frank, Linda, Roy, "the hunters" (aka the Fuocos) ... my childhood was truly magical and in great part because of you.  We will miss you so much, but find comfort in the knowledge that you are in heaven with Jesus and all of your loved ones.  I know that we will all be together again one day, and on that day, we will celebrate with a grand party.  But until then, I pray for your peace, and that it provides Aunt Irma the strength she needs to live in this world without you, until you are eternally reunited.  We love you, Uncle George, and are so grateful to have had you in our lives for as long as we did.

Forever your niece,
Helene

I think my brother and sister and I will always remember Uncle George and Aunt Irma coming up on the weekends to Fishkill.  We always looked forward to their weekend visits.  They would take us shopping and buy us treats and go on day trips with us.  Whether it was apple picking in the fall,  swimming and air shows in the summer or just spending time with us they were so much fun!  We will miss you and love you forever.
With love and peace,
Anine
