Obituary

On Thursday, July 17, 2025, our hearts were saddened by the loss of our loved one, George Washington, affectionately known as "Ronnie" to all, who entered eternal rest at Johnston-Willis Hospital in Richmond, VA. He was born on August 24, 1958, to Mr. James Washington and Mrs. Bertha Washington.
