It is with broken hearts that the family of GEORGIA GAYE DONALDSON announce her passing at the Chinook Regional Hospital, on Tuesday, June 23, 2020 at the age of 71 years.
Georgia is survived by her two sons, Corey of Lethbridge and Chris (Marnie) of West Vancouver BC; much loved grandchildren, Zoe and Jax Donaldson of West Vancouver BC; sister Ger (Derrick) Blasco of Surrey, BC and their children, Brad and Heather; and very special Aunt Louise Collar (Aunt Booie) of Fort Macleod.
Georgia was one of those people who made everyone feel special and loved, and in turn she had many, many friends the world over. But some of her 'special girls' were Sonia (Don) Fields, Judy Matlock and Donna Wiebe, whom she loved as family. She was close to Courtney and Lindsay Field and Amy Harris, to whom she was their 'Aunt Georgia'. Georgia was predeceased by her parents, George and Gladys (Pearson) Milley, brother Gary Milley, grandparents George and Sadie (McNeil) Milley and Stewart and Emily (Pike) Milley as well as many aunts and uncles and very special uncle Jim Collar.
A kind and generous soul who will be greatly missed, Georgia was born on January 28, 1949 in Fort Macleod Alberta to George and Gladys (Pearson) Milley. After she graduated from Fort Macleod High School she went to University in Victoria, BC. Georgia worked for many years at the Dept.of Environment in Lethbridge before going to work as a Manager at Training Inc where she stayed for 25 years. Our life will never be the same without our very dear mother, sister, niece and loving friend who was truly in charge of the whole family. Georgia has crossed over to the other shore to live in peace forever more.
Thank you to Dr.Smutz, Dr.Roth, Dr.Walsh and all the wonderful nurses in 4B who took such loving care of her in her final days.
At Georgia's request, no formal funeral will be held.

Text...Georgia, You lit up the room. Will miss, miss you.
I had the privilege of working with Georgia for the past 3 years. Although our interactions were brief, one thing was very clear; she was the epitome of dedication to her work. She will missed by many. Rest in peace. My sincere condolences to her loved ones.
Georgia Rest In Peace. An absolutely outstanding kind and most gentle person. We were so shocked and sad to hear Georgia's passing. Our thoughts are with the family who she was so very proud of.
There are special people in this world and then there was Georgia. She believed everyone had a story and she was interested in that story and how she could help them be successful in their learning and their personal life. There must be many students from Training Inc who think of Georgia and that they would not have graduated from the program if it wasn't for her. I'm sure you as family know how special she was, but she is leaving a gaping hole in so many lives in Lethbridge. It was an honor to have known her; she had so much to teach each one of us and so much to offer the world that she left in a much better place because of her love.
I was so sad to hear of Georgia's illness and then passing. My deepest heartfelt sympathy to the her family and all the people who's lives she touched. I have many fond memories of Georgia and am grateful to have known her. I will always remember her as a woman who carried herself with the sort of class and grace we all would like to have. Rest easy beautiful Georgia...
I am really shocked to hear the passing away of Georgia. Georgia was a very nice person. We worked in the the same building with the Provincial building in Lethbridge. She was very cheerful person. Then she joined the organization to retrain displaced employees. She called me onetime to tell her about my Punjabi culture. She was working in BC with the people from my culture. She wanted to understand the value system of that culture. I could still see her smiling face. She will be missed. My sincere condolences to her children and other family members. Rest In Peace, Georgia.
I am saddened by the loss of Georgia but am filled with the love she gave to all her clients, friends, family and those of us who worked with her. Georgia was a very special lady and always took the time to acknowledge and treat those who crossed her path with kindness. Thank you for blessing this world with your love and kindness...
