True to the spirit of the day, Cyndy and George had a Halloween inspired wedding on October 31, 1986. They lived together in San Angelo for many wonderful years, raising a family and working fulfilling careers. George was the family handy man, enjoyed doing yard work and loved sitting on his back porch, tending to his many stray cats and he and Cyndy enjoyed the company of their many beloved pets.
