"I have many memories of my cousin George. My fondest memory is rebuilding my Corvette with him. He taught me a lot about how to work on cars and the IMPORTANCE of putting his tools back exactly how and where I took them from. Another virtue learned was patience. Time allotted to work on the car was at George's discretion. So hunting, fishing and racing cars came first. Though I respected his time management, it was so tough being a young man and wanting so badly to drive that car. We spent many hours together in that little garage. I will never forget George and will always cherish my time with him. Sincerely, Alex Avgeres. "
