RIP: George Shields






My wife's Uncle, George Shields, died suddenly the other day. He had been playing golf, one of his favorite past-times. No one can argue that dying, while doing what you love to do, is a bad way to go.

George was an incredible guy. He always had a smile on his face, he provided for his family, he loved to cook, go fishing, hang with his family, and enjoyed an occasional drink or two. He had recently bought a new cottage in Maine, to be used mostly for fishing.

George left us very quickly...not expected by anyone. He is someone who will be sorely missed by so many. RIP, George. We'll fish together again some day. I promise. I hope.
