    Amen, Ross. Uncle George was a blessing to so many. I always admired how he was so selfless and caring for so many in the family, serving and doing all that he could to help. He always had an encouraging word too. Jim

    I knew George as the leader of our Immaculate Heart of Mary Prayer Group at Holy Apostles Parish. He was a faith-filled man, devoted to Our Lord and Our Blessed Mother. May he now be in Paradise for all Eternity. O Loving God, through the heavenly intercession of St. Pio, welcome George Owens into the company of the Saints, where tears are no more, all suffering and pain are ended and there is great joy, abundant life and peaceful rest in Your loving presence. Amen
