GEORGIE SUMNER November 4, 1941 - July 18, 2016 Georgie Sumner of Winnipeg, passed away peacefully on July 18, 2016. Georgie is survived by her sisters and brothers-in-law, Noelle Friesen (Menno) of Winnipeg, and Judy Main (Doug) of Edmonton, her nephews, Chris Friesen, Josh Main and Jeremy Main, and niece Andrea Mick, special cousins, Bob and Maureen Sumner, and longtime and faithful friends, Jo Moyce and Lynn Taylor. She was predeceased by her parents, Josh and Therese Sumner and sister Jackie Jobb. Georgie, sister, aunt, friend...was a blessing to all her knew her. Georgie's faith was vital to her. She often said that she did not know what she would do without her Lord. We will miss you Georgie...your sweetness and wonderful sense of humour...but are relieved that you are finally free and with your Lord. A special thanks to all the medical staff in the ICU at the Grace Hospital. Your outstanding and compassionate care of Georgie is appreciated more than we can say. We know you are now resting in peace Georgie and are enjoying a happy and wondrous reunion with your loved ones. A special "remembrance" time of Georgie was held with her neighbours and friends at Georgie's place of residence on Thursday afternoon, July 21. If anyone wishes, contributions can be made to the Manitoba Lung Association.

Condolences & Memories (3 entries)

  • Georgie was a high school friend in the 50s. She was a sweetie. I used to date her late sister Jackie and used to spend a lot of time at their place on Niagara. Great family. So sad. - Posted by: Charles Phelan (Friend) on: Aug 26, 2016

  • I met Georgie aka Dodie through my Mom, Roberta, who passed away last May (May 8, 2015) and Georgie and I kept in touch. She was a tremendous support to me and we'd call each other to check in and chat. She'd always call me love and we ended every conversation with, I love you. I came to know and understand why my Mom loved her so much. She was a very special lady. I learned of her passing when I called her today for one of our conversations. I wish I had learned of her passing earlier as I would have been at Columbus Courts on July 21 to celebrate her. She was a wonderful person and I will miss her strength, support and love. My thoughts and prayers are with her family. I love you, Georgie. - Posted by: Adele Fitzgerald (Friend) on: Aug 10, 2016

  • I met Georgie when she worked at Transair Airlines way back in the 70's. She was wonderful, quiet, but lots of fun. She belonged to the "in crowd" along with four other ladies. We had lots of laughter, good meals, sharing, and love. She was a good person. Sorry for her loss, I only wish we didn't lose contact, but the world works that way. RIP my friend. - Posted by: Gloria Ivory (Friend (Transair)) on: Jul 23, 2016
