24 Nov 2021I don’t know if anyone will see this since so much time has passed, but I was recently going through some old newspapers and saw Georgia’s obituary. I attended the Mountain View Brethren in Christ Church years ago and met Georgia and Shorty there. They were such a special couple and so much fun. When my husband and I married in 1993, Georgia made a beautiful quilt for us. I was amazed that she went to that much work to bless us in such a special way! We still have it and use it! It is warm. I think of her often when I see the quilt. She was a special lady! I pray your family is blessed and comforted this week as you go through this first Thanksgiving without her.
