The unforgettable George


Recently my friend passed-away from a stroke. When I first met George I couldn’t pronoun his name “Etchoy” so I started calling him George. Not satisfied with George his nickname became “George Bush.” He sort liked his new nickname and whenever anyone would him if he was related to US president, he’d shake his head no… and he’d point at me and say something like this, “That old crazy Kano…” and then he’d continued, “pay him no pay attention.” But deep down he was proud of his name as people started calling him George Bush – even his wife. When not driving for us as our family driver he was tricycle driver and always our friend. George we miss you and may your family have an Irish blessing. Papa Chuck
