  2. We are so sorry that we will be unable to come to the funeral and extend our condolences to your family. Bill is having knee replacement on Tuesday. George and Alice were more than relatives to us. They were like brother and sister to us and our best friends.

    We shared many happy times together with them whether it was in Pittsburgh, Scituate, Wayne or Wytheville. He was a role model husband and father, loving and giving and supportive to the whole “H. B. Mutschler” Clan. He will be sadly missed
