Georgena married John (Jack) Cochran of Carman, MB in 1943 and they had six children: Garth (Frances); Judy; Murray (Kelly); Jannine (Todd Cook); Jerrie (Brad McLean); and Reid (Kim Huibers); seven grandchildren and four great-grandchildren. She lived in Halifax, Winnipeg and Thompson, retiring to Miami, MB, in 1982. Georgena was creative in her writing and artistic in her photography. She had a great sense of humour.

Her pride and joy was always her flowers, expressed in her houseplants wherever she lived and her yard and garden in retirement. She always did well in the Miami Horticultural Fair, following in her mother's footsteps. Georgena was predeceased by husband Jack (1993) and daughter Judy (1997). She will be interred at Miami Cemetery, 10:00 a.m. on October 10, 2015 - dress casual. In lieu of flowers, a donation may be made to Alzheimer Society of Manitoba (www.alzheimer.mb.ca).
