George, Gisele and I were friends for over 50 years. I cherished the relationship I had with them both.
George was a unique individual, very learned, a true intellectual, much admired by those who knew him. He had a delightful sense of humour and was a wonderful cook, too, and we must not forget his prowess in playing tennis!
I remember many conversations with George on his front veranda and was fascinated to listen to his theories of life. What a delightful human being!
