George & Doree were always a team.
I have many memories of the Trom get-togethers where Doree always had a big smile and a fun giggle.
I’m sorry for your loss.

Thornton COMy how the years have gone by. I remember talking with George and Doris when they would visit with Cy and Grace who lived across the street from us. It had to be in the early 50’s when I was about 6 or 7 years old.
Mom and Dad would always enjoy visiting with them too. They were wonderful people. I’m sorry for your loss.
