The sup port and compassion of family and friends helped make the loss of our brother Tony bearable and helped to lessen our sadness and sorrow through the funeral arrangements on to the final resting place, the meal and since. Thank you you are greatly appreciated. To those who gave special sentiments such as flowers and other contribu tions, thank you so much you know who you are so please know that you will not be forgotten. To the caregivers who treated our brother so kindly and took good care of him .... thank you. A special thank you to Anna, for everything you did but particularly for transporting Tony especially to our home when he needed to talk. A big thank you to those who prepared the meal after the services and to all of Tony's family and friends who paid respects to him thank you so much, he would have been proud to know all of you were there. We were so happy when Tony made the decision to stay home instead of returning to California several years back. We think he was happy to be home, also. Again, thank you to everyone and may God bless. Sincerely, The Tony George Family All Tribal Offices will be closed on Monday, Sept. 3, in observance of Labor Day.
