Dear family members: Please accept my deepest sympathy. George was my age but I remember Denny well. We all played together at the parks and in our backyards. He and my brother(Bob) played on the same baseball team. He was a devout Christian and like all the Marions had a wonderful work ethic. You are in my thoughts and prayers.
