Hello Family,
It’s with a heavy heart that I’m sending condolences to you. As a child, my Uncle George always welcomed “Deanie’s” children, not only as his nieces, but like his very own. I loved him deeply, and I love my family too. He will be greatly missed, but acknowledged by love. Your niece and cousin, Marian Woodfark Ramsey
