George Foreman - a great example of using all the talents God gave him, living quite a life in doing so, and a good guy.

Much respect, George!

Rest In Peace, and prayers for your family and friends.

I met him at Fort Hood before my unit left for Desert Shield/Desert Storm. He was sleeping in the terminal for 3 days on base because there were flights leaving every couple of hours and he didn’t want to miss a flight. When he walked into the waiting room, it sounded like thunder for the cheers. He talked to us and encouraged us for awhile. When it was time to board the plane, he stood at the door to shake everyone’s hand and was telling each and every one to “Come home safe”. BTW his hands were twice as big as mine, it was like shaking my Dad’s hand when I was a little kid. RIP Patriot.
