Dear Barbara,
It is with deep sadness that Gloria and I have received the news of George's passing. Although we were business partners George was, first and foremost, a dear friend.
Gloria and I first met him in the mid 1990's. He invited us to a restaurant on Piccadilly Lane where we had a gourmet dinner with the perfect accompanying wine. Our discussion about how to develop the business of medical diagnostics established a connection which convinced me that we had found the ideal business partner. At all times, George was professional, knowledgeable and creative.
However, it is the personal aspect that I wish to emphasize. On one occasion, George traveled to Denver and met my father who was also visiting; even though there was the language barrier, my father always remembered his conversation with George. At one dinner party, he chose a wine in honor of Gloria's parents: Julien and Gloria. We always felt honored that you invited us to Donald and Carrie's wedding in London. During the years, we have never stopped sharing the latest news of our children and granddaughters.
Every November, after MEDICA in Dusseldorf, I looked forward to a few days in Peterborough before heading back home. We especially remember our recent visit to Peterborough. By then, George had had serious medical problems but, as usual, you and George gave us the warmest of welcomes and we stayed in your home for a couple of days. I remember we talked about our favorite topics, including our personal preferences of Scotch whisky.
We will cherish many fond memories of George, but even though George has passed away, we want to keep in close contact with you. We hope we can meet in the near future to share our friendship and keep memories alive.
Warmest regards,
Luis and Gloria Lopez

I was saddened to hear of your loss. I worked with George from afar for many years, and enjoyed many business trips together both in the US and abroad. On my first business trip as a young lad, I met George at a tradeshow in Las Vegas. During an evening business meeting and over a bottle of scotch with a few others, I was taught that once the bottle was empty, all would make sense and with that, the meeting was over. Thank you George for the introduction to that golden nectar. I've learned to appreciate it's flavor and contribution to clarity.
