To All Georgia’s family,
My deepest condolences in the loss of Georgia. I have enjoyed knowing her and talking art with her for many years, just wish I had gotten around to asking her for a lesson or two. I always wanted to learn from her and just kept putting it off. Now, I have missed the chance to learn from a great lady and artist. Love her dearly and will miss her a lot. She always had a smile for me and was so gracious and kind.
Ed and Bev Schaffer says
One of the sweetest, most kind ladies I’ve ever had the privilege to know. We will miss her and her beautiful smile! Bonnie, Greg, Rick and families we are thinking of you, and praying for God’s comfort and peace for all.
Ginger says
My deepest sympathies to the family. Georgia….quite a woman! Her cheery smile and talents will be greatly missed.
Judy Denson-Keller says
Stanley, Bonnie, Greg, Rick and all,
Our hearts, thoughts and prayers are with you at this difficult time. Georgia will always have a special place in my heart as she was always so kind, and had a heart of gold. Her smile would light up a room. Georgia was not only an awesome artist, she also a a green thumb to boot. She not only produced beautiful works of art, her flower gardens were absolutely breathtaking. The community of Broadus suffered another significant loss. May she rest in peace. God Bless all of you.
Veda says
i AM SO SORRY, SHE IS TAKING CARE OF THE FLOWERS AND SPREADING HER WONDERFUL SMILE IN HEAVEN. SHE WILL TRULEY BE MISSED. HUGS TO STANLEY AND FAMILY.
Sylvia & Darold Zimmer says
What a legend this “Mother” was!! After knowing her from when Bonnie and I were in high school to renewing “knowing” her these last few months at the Manor. Georgia always had a smile for me as we would sit and reminisce as to what her kids were doing. Her family was her most important possession!! Memories of walking in the “garden” talking about her flowers and gardens was easily known as one of her most precious pastime.s Next summer she will be one of the “angels” helping me plant, pull weeds and water. The time she spent teaching me how to “blend” colors in her colored pencil pictures were priceless. Now go take care of the gardens in heaven dear Georgia ‘cus they need you… Love and hugs to all the family, especially you Bon-bon!!!

Jim Moutrey says
Will truly miss your wife Stan the Man and your wonderful mom Rick, Greg, & Bonnie. Remember picking up Greg numerous times in the 63 Chevy and not being run off by Georgia. Got a picture painted by Georgia auctioned off at the Spencer Damm Memorial that hangs on a wall that I am facing often (in my recliner) that I have always treasured and now will think of Georgia resting in peace when I look at the picture. My thoughts are with you all.
Joan Damm Smith says
