I shall always remember Georgia as a very friendly and down to earth person. She often visited Montgomery from Las Vegas and we always greeted each other with a smile and laughter. I will never forget her love of energy drinks and her long do to list while in Montgomery. Georgia always took the time to talk and laugh with my son Sterling (Lilly's grandson). We will all miss you Georgia. May your family be at peace on earth as you are now.

Georgia was such a loving and caring person. I will always have fond memories of Georgia and will miss her dearly as she always included me when she came to Montgomery and visited with her dear friend, Lilly. I considered myself fortunate that she cared for me, too. My prayers are with you. Take care of yourselves as Georgia would have each of you to do.
