Jorgett my second cousin on the George side of the family just found out about her passing. So sorry we didn’t know where she lived or who she married. Now she will be on the family tree. My condolences to her husband and children. Sandra George Paine
My heartfelt sympathies go out to Jorgette’s family. I just found out of here passing today. I worked with both Jorgette and Mike for many years at Fedex. I fondly remember the times we shared pictures and stories of our children as well as sharing our faith. I know Jorgette is with our Lord and pray that Mike and the rest of the family are comforted by our Lord and Savior during their time of grief. She is sorely missed. God Bless you All. Doug

Posted to Facebook page. …til we meet again Jorgette…
We are very sorry for your loss and our condolences to all. The pain of death can be overwhelming no matter what the age. The Bible provides comfort during difficult times. We are promised at 1 Corinthians 15:26 that very soon “death will be brought to nothing.” Then we have the prospect of being reunited with our loved ones right here on earth. (John 5:28,29) We hope this brings you comfort and encouragement that we will see Jorgette again soon.
I was a perfect stranger to her the day I left Memphis for residency in Florida. She stopped to introduce herself and say “I feel like the Lord wants me to pray for you everyday [as you start this program]”.. Little did she know that I was terrified going so far to start all over again. And here she was, a seemingly shy person – reaching out to me so boldly.. She could not have known that i really did need that as u was so afraid of what was in front of me.I got to know this beautiful person in that year 1998. I wondered why i never had known her before. She was so precious. And the memories i have of someone who was before a perfect stranger and who became..someone from home who prayed daily, called often, pulled for me, talked and encouraged me .was priceless. We never even known each other before I left and then she became one of my dearest sisters in the Lord.I am heartbroken by this news. I realy do not have words tonconvey how sad I am. I extend my love to this family. And no words could convey my heartfelt gratitude to this beautiful woman of God. Love and miss you, Jorgette. You were there for me when I needed it most and fee knew that. Thank you for obeying God and looking out for even the least of them like me. Enjoy your new life. I’ll see you soon.
To Matthew and the Brooks Family, I did not have the honor of meeting Mrs. Brooks. But, I have met and adore her son Matthew. He is a blessing and a tribute to his mother. He has a good heart and a kind spirit. I can only wish Matthew and the family peace as only our Lord and Savior can provide. Please remember the wonderful times that made you laugh. These are the memories that will carry you through. I pray God’s blessings on you all during this rough patch in your life. Kelley Smith
