Memories of George

My Memory of George:

I met George during a critical time in my life. I was 18-years-old, and just finished cosmetology school. My parents had moved out of the state, and I was going through a terrible break-up with my boyfriend. All of my friends from high school were away at college, and I was feeling very alone. I passed my State Boards and got a job at the Hair Cuttery- and that is where I met George. He was so nice to me, and we instantly became best friends. I never spent another night alone. George and I watched old movies at his apartment. We went to the Village Movie Theater every week. We went out to eat and we were always doing somthing crazy to our hair. I let him talk me into coloring my hair purple once. We both had a good laugh. George took me to my first bar. I was not old enough to get in, but he knew all the bartenders- so my age was never an issue. I will cherrish every good time we had together.

I ended up moving away in 1997. I spent my last night in Baltimore with George. We had an incredible time. I knew I would miss him the most when I left. We never lost touch over the years. He was always my rock. I knew if I ever needed him, he was just an instant message or phone call away. He always asked about my family, and made sure we were all ok. He never stopped telling me how proud he was that I started college at 39-years old. I think he was more excited than I was when I started my Master's Program. Athough we lived 2,500 miles apart, we never lost that special connection. I will never forget the beautiful friendship we shared. I am so grateful he became a part of my life. I will forever miss him.
