I’ve known Georgeann for probaly 7 years. We were Friends at Cafemom & Facebook. Also on Skype. Some of us talked to her when she was having issues with her blood sugar. Those were some scary times. We all called her G. We will miss her.
Sending Hugs to her Family!

Dear family of Georgeann, I’m so sorry for your loss. I have been a friend to Georgeann for probably 6,7 years. I have never actually met her but came to know her very well through my Cafe Mom groups, Facebook and also Skype. We had some great fun and many laughs in our chat group on Skype. We were always worried about her when she’d mention her sugar was low. We were like her support group at times. She always chatted waiting for Mike to come home from work, then she would leave the chat. She loved making tags and siggies as offers in my Grandmas Group. She will be missed. Please accept my sincere sympathies at this sad time. Sending hugs across the miles.

Wolski Family,
Our thoughts and prayers are with you.
May the wonderful memories created over the years carry you thru this difficult time.
We hope the following words bring you comfort.
No eye has seen;
No ear has heard;
Nor has the mind of man conceived;
Of what God has prepared…
For those who love him.

I work with Mike at Meijer’s and never got to meet his wife but my deepest sympathy goes to Mike and the family. Mike told me last week that she had lost weight and was able to reduce her diabetic meds as a result. He was so pleased that she was getting better and the pride showed in his smile. My thoughts and prayers are with you Mike and see you soon.

I had known Georgeann for about 8 or 9 years from various groups on CafeMom and Facebook. I know that her passing has affected many people and she will certainly be greatly missed. I know that she enjoyed creating siggies for us in a group we were in and the ones she created were beautiful. I want to extend my deepest sympathy to her husband, Mike, children, grandchildren and greatgrandchildren. She loved you all so much and is still with you in spirit.

So sorry to hear of Georgeann’s passing. We just moved back to Michigan from Florida in April, and have not settled enough to renew old acquaintences.
Many fond memories of old times.
We will remember you in our prayers.
