I got to know Georgie because of my friendship with her aunt Vivian Irene (Tubb) Moore. Georgie and I only encountered each other maybe 5 times over the years mainly because I seldom get to Saskatoon. If I were asked to describe her I would say a real lady who practised Christian charity on a daily basis and possessed a kind and ebullient nature and constant intellectual curiosity. Whoever wrote her obituary captured the true Georgie in one sentence: "She was a woman of remarkable integrity!" And so she was!
Georgie was very dedicated to advancing the abilities of everyone to have the ability to read . Many an hour was spent in the Star Phoenix directed by Georgie board room working with a diverse group with the the same purpose to promote the ability to read. Sincerely Doug Lovegrove Saskatoon
Georgie did indeed make me feel a very welcome visitor to Wiggins on many overnight stays to visit Jan. And her warmth and softness certainly was extended to me. But mostly I knew her beautiful and wonderful reflection in Jan, Margie, Linda and Kathy. I knew her generous and faithful reflection in my grandparents' experiences of her. I learned more about Georgie at this wonderful service - and yet not one thing was truly new because I had seen all of her before, in her beloveds and in mine.
The Lord will indeed watch between thee and she while you are absent one from the other. And be assured that she will be with each of you - because she already always was.
Love to you all,
Susan

My sympathy and prayers to Georgie's family. She was a firecracker! I joined the Reading Council and was lucky to meet and work with Georgie. Her commitment to children and literacy were inspiring.

My deepest condolences to Georgie's family. I was shocked, and saddened, to hear of her death. She was a wonderful, kind, and compassionate person. My mom - also a Georgie - knew her from working together at the Star-Phoenix, as well as Knox church, and I know she valued your mom's friendship a great deal.
I am so sorry to hear of Georgie’s passing. She was such a gentle, lovely and elegant lady like her picture in the obit shows. I always enjoyed the good visits I had with her at the marina. My deepest condolences to your families.
I am so sorry to learn About the death Of Georgie. But it was my blessing to have known her and then renewed her friendship and wisdom again when anticipating to write a journal about palliative care. I am sorry she did not live to see it published
Our sincere sympathy to all of Georgina’s lovely family. We had the pleasure of introducing Wayne to Georgina in our first years of teaching in Saskatoon. They are together again.
We will always remember the gracious, kind and warmheartedness of Georgina.
Her friendship was lasting, unwavering and appreciated. Georgina a true friend will be missed
We are keeping all of you in our prayers, but we know your strong faith will carry you through this sad time.
Georgie was a very classy lady. She was certainly the class act of the Copper Lilacs. We will miss
her kindness, compassion, spirituality, and her grace.
