In 2006, she married Wilhelm Wiedemann. In 2008, she moved to Klamath Falls, Ore., with Willie, then later to Idaho Falls. Willie passed away in 2015.

She was a member of the Seventh Day Adventist Church. She was very involved with her church for 75 years. Georgia was always willing to help in any capacity with her church activities, in any town she lived in. She lived a life by the word of God and loved the Lord with all her heart.
