  • Sorry to hear of Georgina's passing. Georgina was a lady with class. She always spoke highly of her son Chris. Was very proud to see Ted in tuxedo. She took myself and my mother and Chris on adventures to her secret blueberry picking spot. It was great. The blueberries were hanging like grapes. It was a beautiful great day. Now don't share this place with anyone she said, because it's a secret. Thanks for that awesome day Georgina!! - Posted by: Teresa Bielak (Friend) on: Jul 08, 2019
