It is with deep sadness that the family announces the passing of their loving Mother, adored Gramma and G.G. She is survived by her daughters, Maureen (Brian) Hesje, Diana (Keith) Eccles, Gayle Quick, Carol Irwin and Susan Irwin. She was adored by her 11 grandchildren and she loved them deeply, Erin (Jon) Brosnihan of Cayman Island; Allison Hesje (Rynhard) of Waco, Texas; R.J. Eccles of Edmonton; Lindsay Chmilar (Chris) of New Brigden; Kelly (Marc) McCurley of Brisbane, Australia; Sarah (Nick) Gartner of Edmonton; Stacey Quick of Calgary; Jonathan Chmilar of Edmonton; Meghan Samoil and Kyle Samoil of Calgary; and Connor Chmilar of Edmonton. She is also survived by her very precious great-grandchildren, Ethan and Abby Brosnihan of Cayman Island. Georgina was predeceased by her loving husband, Waller in 2009; son, Tom in 2007 and son-in-law, Ron Quick in 2008. It gives the family much comfort to know that Dad is once again together with his "Blue Eyed Princess". Rest in peace Mom, Gramma, G.G. A Memorial Service will be held to celebrate her life at 1:00 p.m., Saturday, January 7, 2012 at Foster and McGarvey Funeral Home, 10011-114 Street, Edmonton.
