Very sad to read about Georgie.. A wonderful woman who lived just a few blocks from my dad's house in Astoria..

She was probably one of the most dedicated fans ever in wrestling and will be missed in a major way.

I had gotten to know Georgie the last few years. I know that I will truly miss her. My sympathy goes out to George, her husband, and the rest of her Family and Friends.

She was a total sweetheart, and had been a fan forever.. as in, she ran Buddy Rogers fanclub in the 60's.. I was shocked to hear she was only in her late 60's actually. A woman who knew everyone ever in the biz, and one of the last links to the past who is now lost forever. Very sad indeed...

Georgianne and I have been friends for over 20 plus years. She was not only a loyal wrestling fan but a very good loyal friend. I can't say enough good things about Georgie. The news of her passing is a huge loss to the wrestling community.

She will be sorely missed by everyone that knew her.
