Georgina rode a horse to school when she was in grade school. In her high school years, she boarded to Pomeroy and graduated from Pomeroy High in 1935.
On Nov 27, 1935 she married Delbert Cox in Walla Walla.
Delbert worked for the U. S. Forest Service for 33 years, retirig in 1966. They moved many times during that period. Some of the places they lived were O'Hara, Fenn Ranger Station, State Creek C.C. Camp, Grangeville Bungalow, Lolo Ranger Station, ad Remount Station near French Town, Mont.

Georgina was a 65-year member of the Order of the Eastern Star and longtime member of PEO. She was very proud of their charitable work.
Surviving relatives are her sister-in-laws, Maxine and Nora Cox, brothers-in-law, Tom, Gary, Bob, and Bill Cox, all of Washington and Idaho.
Lauren Graves of Grangeville has been Georgina's friend, companion and support person for the last eight years.
