**************************************
My condolences to the Seeley Family. I am glad I had a chance to have met her this past year. I remember my grandmother speaking fondly of Georgie and her husband Bill. I placed a call to my Uncle Justin and told him that I would call with further details. I think he plans to attend one of the services.
***************************************
The calling hours will be: Wednesday - 2-4 and 6-8 with the funeral service held after the evening hours.
Here's her obit:
