Georgia Windle

G eorgia Jean (Morris) Windle, 85, of Sabetha, KS passed peacefully to her heavenly home on Sunday, June 3, 2018 at the Sabetha Manor.

Georgia was born near Humboldt, Nebraska on November 17, 1932 to Carl and Ella (Wagoner) Morris.  Prior to her graduation from Bern High School in 1950, Georgia attended country school.  On May 29, 1955 Georgia married Donald “Buck” Windle in Bern.  The couple established their home in the rural Sabetha area before moving to town in 1966.  To this union eight children were born.

Georgia never was one to shy away from work; she held various jobs prior to her marriage and the birth of her children.  Once her and Buck’s children were older, Georgia returned to working as a caregiver at various nursing homes around Sabetha until she retired from Cobblestone Court in 1999.  In her free time Georgia enjoyed playing cards, going to bingo, and will be remembered for her infectious laugh that couldn’t be contained.  Georgia was a great baker and often had baked goods for family and friends for birthdays or holidays.

Georgia is survived by her husband, Donald “Buck” Windle of the home; children, Debbie (Andy) Trent, Roger (Susan) Windle, Tanya (Rusty) Zeigler, Kim (Jeff) Feighner, Scott Windle (fiancé, Rose Twitty); ten grandchildren, nine great-grandchildren; a brother, Carl (Denise) Morris Jr. and a sister, Betty Kindle.  She was preceded in death by her parents, infant children, Donnie and Gina; a daughter, Sandra; a granddaughter and a great-granddaughter both at birth.

Graveside services will be held Friday, June 8, 2018 at 10:30 a.m. at the Albany Cemetery, north of Sabetha.  Memorials are suggested in her name and may be sent in care of Popkess Mortuaries, 823 Virginia St., Sabetha, KS 66534.
