Very sorry to hear of George’s passing. Prayers for all family. We knew George while living in OK. Richard, my husband, worked with him at Ford.

Anthony,
So sad to learn of your parents passing. My dad, Billy “Dumplin” Lawson worked with George for many years at Ford.
Seems like they might have carpooled together! Again, the loss of both parents is absolutely heart breaking and only God can get you through this.
Be strong and know that others are praying for you and your family!
