I worked with Georganna for many years at State Farm Insurance. After retirement, she and I and several other retired ladies had lunch every month for almost 20 years. At work she was always kind, helpful and knowledgeable. Personally she was a joy to be around, always had a funny story to share, and could remember people and places and situations whether current or long past. She is missed very much.
