Georgie was a dear friend all through my childhood and so wonderful to be together again when I moved back home to AR. We were prayer warriors together, enjoyed hours visiting on the phone and I will miss her sweet smile, encouragement and kindnesses that were so genuine. Heaven has grandly welcomed my sweet friend.
My condolences to her loving family.
