How very hard this time in life is for all of us who knew Georgia, as a daughter, a sister, an aunt, a mother, a grandmother, or a friend. For the past 36 years Georgia has been a dear and devoted friend to me (the big sister I never had), and a second Mother to my kids. She was the force behind my career of 34 years and I wish she would have pursued it with me. To let go is hard, but to remember her in all her glorious doings will get us through this time in our lifes that shouldn't have happened yet.
Remember, not only is she with the angels and those that went before her, but she is the guardian angel to all of us left behind that wonder why.
Good bye dear friend and most beautiful lady, may you continue to shine in Heaven as you did here on Earth.

Dear family and friends,
The loss of Georgia leaves me speechless. Words cannot define the impact she made on the lives of those fortunate enough to have known her. Georgia lived by these rules:
Let yourself laugh, let yourself make funny faces, let yourself eat too much chocolate, but above all, let yourself be.
It was easy to be yourself around Georgia, she accepted everyone she met and welcomed everyone into her heart and her home. She taught some of life’s greatest lessons just by being herself. Thank you Georgia for all of the wonderful times you gave to me and my boys. You will always be in our hearts.

Georgia will be greatly missed by all of her family and friends. She will be remembered as a kind and loving mother, grandmother, daughter, sister and aunt. Even with the miles that separated us I always knew I had a special place in Georgia’s heart. I know she is watching over us during our time of grieving and know she is in a better place.

As I sit down to sign this guest book my heart is torn. My mind keeps flashing back to times that I have spent in the presence of Georgia and I selfishly fell sadden that I will not have the opportunity to have her counsel anymore. She was a great spirit. A very kind person. She welcomed you with open arms into her home and made you feel you were a part of her life. Her love for her children knows no bounds. They were always the eventual topic of our conversations. She was so proud of them all and she had a right to be. She raised them all to be honorable and respectful. Right now I see a vision of her up in heaven telling the short guy with thick bifocals on..how she wants the decoration done for the next holiday and I smile. I see her telling him to straighten out the bedroom closet so she can have room for her stuff and I smile. I see her pretty smile and her amazing eyes and my heart is warmed. I know she would want everyone down here to remember the good times and smile. I could go on forever but I will end here. I feel very special to have known her, and I salute Aunt Georgia Eggebraaten LaFleure.

I met Georgia when I started working at the West Jordan Care Center. She was my supervisor. Georgia wanted to give the very best care to those she was entrusted to care for and she expected others to do the same. I am grateful to her for teaching this valuable lesson to all of us. Georgia had a great sense of humor! She often teased me. She was a wonderful person and will be missed.

Kids we are so saddened by Georgia's death. I absolutely loved her. We sure did have many good times together. We were two of a kind and loved laughing. This is the true reason why you tell people that you love them. We told each other each time we called. I will be forever heart broken. As ever with love. Cindy

I only have known Georgia for a short time but it seems she had a special sense about her and friends came easy for her. The family at YPG Chapel will miss her and will remember our friend and your family in the weekly Rosary for the next few weeks.
We can endure this life's trials because of the next life's joys.

January 18, 2009

On behalf of the 1st Battalion, 1st Special Forces Group (Airborne) Riggers, please accept our condolences during your time of sorrow. We sincerely hope that the Lord will comfort your family during these trying times. What moves through us is a silence, a quiet sadness, a longing for one more day, one more word, one more touch, we may not understand why Georgia left this earth so soon, or why Georgia left before we were ready to say good-bye, but little by little, we begin to remember not just that she died, but that she lived. And that her life gave each and every one of you memories too beautiful to forget. Although it's difficult today to see beyond the sorrow, May looking back in memory help comfort you tomorrow.

We Salute you Ma’am…
