Georgette “Getty” Schwab McCoy Young passed away on December 19, 2019 at the age of 96 after a brief illness.
The daughter of George and Margaret Schwab, Georgette was born in New Orleans, LA on November 4, 1923.
She was the youngest of her five sisters, Margaret Young, Shirley Schwab, Audrey Drendel, Irma Claffey, and Noel Digby, who have all preceded her in death.
Georgette married Herbert “Mack” McCoy on Feb. 18th, 1950 until his death in 1971. She then married Robert “Bob” Young on August 25th, 1984 until his death in 2016.
Georgette is survived by her four daughters, Deborah McCoy, Kristeen Bauer (Bob), Julie Boudreaux (Ken), Irma Shepherd (Paul), and Bob’s son, Robert A. Young, Jr. (Patricia).
She was the proud grandmother of Preston McCoy, Roger Bauer (Tara), Lauren Brocksmith (Dustin), April Vincent (Andrew), Katie Boudreaux, Allison Rowland (Shawn) and Meredith Schofield.
She was the great-grandmother of 11 great-grandchildren: Shelby and Riley Brocksmith, Alyssa and Abigail Vincent, Collin, Daniel and Charles Bauer, Ella and Fox Rowland, Reese and Sabine Schofield.
She adored her many nieces and nephews who enjoyed the company of their Aunt Getty as well.
Quick to make friends, Georgette had a vibrant personality, a generous heart and many wonderful neighbors and life-long friends. Always willing to offer advice, lend a hand, or cook a meal, her friends and family loved spending time with her and listening to her colorful stories. You never quite knew what Georgette was going to say, but one thing’s for sure; you would probably either laugh or blush, or sometimes do both!
Georgette loved to read stacks of library books every week, enjoyed playing solitaire and sending emails on her laptop, and always looked forward to watching Jeopardy.
She enjoyed creating ceramics to give away as gifts and especially loved to sew and do needlepoint. She loved playing the piano and had a soft spot in her heart for dogs.
Georgette especially loved when Robin and Pat and their family would visit from Maryland and enjoyed Robin’s famous blueberry pancakes. She would often talk fondly of the memories she had going camping with her nephew Mike Dibgy and his wife Gail and spending time with her “fifth daughter” Robin Benedict.
Everyone who knew Georgette loved her enthusiasm for life, her wise advice and her friendly disposition. She dearly loved her Lord and Savior and was so ready to be in His presence. She will be greatly missed by her family and friends.
The family wishes to thank all those who cared for her and visited her while she lived at Fidelis Residential Care Homes.
