Georgie Mae Gee's Obituary
Georgie Mae Gee was born January 17, 1930 in her parents’ home in Rowlett, Texas. She was the second of nine children born to George Washington Hargrove and Flora Mae Perkins Hargrove. Georgie graduated from Garland High School in 1947, married, and was a new mother in 1949. She went to work at Texas Instruments after her third child was born where she would work for the next thirty-seven and a half years. During that time, she gave birth three more times including one stillbirth that she suffered at great personal loss. Georgie was a talented artist and made beautiful porcelain dolls until a serious car accident in 1993 in which she broke her neck and suffered a brain injury. Despite suffering from chronic medical conditions including narcolepsy and diabetes, she managed to sell Avon part time for many years until she realized she was buying more than she was selling. Georgie is survived by her husband of 44 years, James E. Gee; her children, Darlene Harris, Hal D. Wallace, Jr. and wife, La Donna, Lovie Dokmanovich, Terry Gee, Flo Newman, Ronda Roach and husband, Lonnie; and siblings, George Hargrove (Donna), Dick Hargrove (Charlotte), Nelda McCord, Delores Collendrina (Leonard), and Linda Aston. She was Gee Gee to her grand children: Dina, Amy, Hal III, Lindsay, Peter, Lovie, Taylor, Trevor, Jake, Bailey and Luke and to her great-grand children: Abby, Emma, Harris, Haley, Heidi and Landrie. She was preceded in death by her stillborn child; father and mother, George and Flora Hargrove; beloved son-in-law, Dave Harris; nephew, Kenny Gracy; brother-in-law, Kenneth Gracy; two brothers, Son (Clint) and Johnny, and his daughter Tina. Most recently she lost her oldest sister, Jenell, her brother-in-law, Ray McCord and nephew Rick Gracy. We are so very grateful for her life. She had many blessings as well as tragedies to overcome. She was a unique individual and will be missed by all who knew her. The visitation for Georgie Gee will be held on Saturday, January 24, 2015 from 6:00pm-8:00pm at Restland Funeral Home.
