<p class=MsoNormal>Dear Friends of Talking Communities,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>It is with deep sorry that I inform you that the Founder and
CEO of Talking Communities, George Buys, passed away this afternoon from
complications of emphysema. An online memorial service will be held at a yet to
be disclosed date.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>George was a believer in relationships, but the secret to
his relationships was that he did everything to try and make it unequal. He
always tried to end up with less than the other person. We, at Talking
Communities, will try to continue to live up to the standard that George has
set, always making sure our customers, partners, and friends get more from us
than we get from them. And until we meet again, we wish George success in his
new endeavors and know that those now surrounding him will benefit from the
wonderful man he is. He will be sorely missed.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Regards,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Steven Hoffmann<o:p></o:p></p>
