My deepest condolences to the family. I feel your loss and send my sincere regrets. You do not know me - I live in Northern California, and am married to George Benton Sparks, 65, a recently retired 8th grade science teacher. Your George and my George shared a love of life, adventures and their family. I happened on this by chance just now and want to express kindness and warmest regards. So sorry for your loss.
