Georgie Wright Obituary

Georgie Olinger Wright

November 24, 2024

Georgie Olinger Wright peacefully entered the presence of Jesus on November 24, 2024, at the age of 89. Georgie's life was a testament to faith, love, and service. Georgie and Earl Wright shared 59 wonderful years of marriage. Georgie retired from EASTMAN Kodak after 33 years of dedicated service. Awaiting her in heaven were her parents, Roy and Ida Olinger; her brother, Richard Carl Olinger; Earl's parents, Rev. Freeman and Wilma Wright; and, of course, her dear husband, Earl. She leaves behind a legacy of love with her "Granddaughter by Choice," Abby (Jordan) Weaver; her cousin, Denise (Alan) Goodwin; and her special friends Barbara Sapp, Kathleen Shanks, Gerry and Dee Frazier, Donna Dougherty, Suzie Williams, Judy Sargusa, and Judy Wesemen. She will also be missed by many cousins and lifelong friends.

A graveside service will be held on Tuesday, November 26th at 12:00pm at East Lawn Memorial Park, officiated by Pastor Aaron Rayburn. In lieu of flowers, Georgie requested donations in her memory to be made to St. Jude Children's Research Hospital. For full tribute details, visit www.eastlawnkingsport.com
