Thanks for posting a link with a picture. It's not who I first thought it was. There was a man who, years ago, would dance by himself, free style, all around the gazebo at Spanish Springs Town Square. He was very graceful and expressive. I always wondered what happened to him. Does anyone remember that man?

There's a lesson to be learned here: Men, if you want to be remembered and prayed for when you get old, you better learn how to dance!

I just read the comments. The love and thoughtfulness of your words and thoughts has me tearing up and has put a lump in my throat. I know that I have to print them out and take them by and read them to George. You are all sincerely the best of humanity. Thank you. I know George will love your kindness.

I have seen George dance several times and always enjoyed him. He looked so happy when he danced that he made me feel happy just watching him. I hope he has a speedy recovery period. Prayers and best wishes to you, George!

I believe I saw him a couple times this spring at SS.

George is a really nice man. Here's a picture of him dancing with Gary Senator of 3 For The Road. It's from August of 2013.

Is anyone else having trouble opening this link? I'm getting a Temporary Error 404 message when I try.

Used to call him: "Georgie Porgy" The Dancing Machine. I'm sure all our prayers will help!

Miss seeing George on the square. Always made us smile seeing him have such a good time dancing. Good luck with eye surgery George...
