Forever remembered by daughter Marilyn Eddy, her sons Douglas Crummey (Mathieu Bertrand) & Matthew Crummey, their father Paul Crummey, and great-grandchildren Logan & Lukas Bertrand-Crummey; granddaughter Chantell Firth (Curtis), daughter-in-law Wanda Eddy; daughter Deanna Burns and her partner Troy Butt, her sons Nicholas Burns (partner Felisha and her daughter Lila), Damien Burns, and their father Mark Burns; son Scott Eddy and his fiancé Trina Hillyard; brother Wendell Forward (Helen), sister Phyllis Davis (late William), sisters-in-law Juanita Gilbert (late Dorman), Jean Smith (Baxter), Vera Wells (Ellis Bridger), Anne Hickey (late James), Evelyn Hickey (John) and Shirley; brothers Ralph Eddy (Sylvia) and Lloyd Eddy (Bernetta), best friend Elsie Johnson, neighbours Frank, Ada and Tracey Dean, good friend and travel buddy Mazie Crummey.
Predeceased by parents Augustus & Bertha Forward, her darling husband of 58 years, Eric Eddy, son Curtis Eddy, brother and sister-in law Robert & Shirley Forward, brother and sister-in law Lloyd & Shirley Forward, sister and brother-in-law Barbara & Carl Penney, sister and brother-in-law Rose & Willis Warren, sister and brother-in-law Ivy and Donald McDonald, sister and brother-in-law Dora and Gladstone Eddy, brother-in-law James Hickey.
Georgie is also remembered by a large circle of nieces, nephews, cousins and friends, near and far, as a faithful United Church Women member, a supporter of her church and the wider community, a life-long shutterbug, proud owner and operator of the Midway Superette, and at 16 started her career as a much loved teacher when she moved to North Harbour; where she met the love of her life, Eric. She loved being out on the water with family, either in Placentia Bay, or in the open ocean on a cruise. She also loved boil ups in the woods and picnics on the beaches of Placentia Bay, with Eric and her friends and family. She was a loving and caring wife, mother, grandmother, great-grandmother, sister, aunt, and friend, who loved hard no matter who you were. Her doctor described her as someone with a beautiful soul; anyone who knew her, knew this to be true.
Georgie’s family would like to thank Doctor Paula Pye for the exemplary care she provided for over 30 years as well as Community Support Nurse Cathy Edwards and the staff at Health-e Choice Pharmacy. Your kindness, dedication, professionalism, and compassion will not be forgotten.
