Dorrit,

Thanks for sharing your news with us.

George was very special to me. His posts and connection when I first joined this site meant a lot. I'll never forget him and how kind and funny he was with me.

I'm sad.

“One final paragraph of advice: do not burn yourself out. Be as I am a reluctant enthusiast…a part time crusader, a halfhearted fanatic. Save the other half of yourselves and your lives for pleasure and adventure. It is not enough to fight for the land; it is even more important to enjoy it… while you can. While it is still there. – Edward Abbey
