Georgia Earline Marburger Haefele
A memorial service in remembrance of Georgia Haefele, 74, will be held October 10, 2011 at 2 p.m. in the McKibben Cafeteria on the Wyoming State Fairgrounds. Cremation has taken place and Georgia's ashes will be scattered by the family at a later date.
Georgia Haefele, a lifelong resident of Converse County, died Sunday, October 2, 2011, at Douglas Care Center after a courageous battle with cancer.
Georgia was born on May 2, 1937, in Casper, WY, the eldest daughter of Fred Wilbur and Hazel Erma Mae Wright Marburger. She grew up and attended elementary school in Orpha, then graduated from Douglas High School in 1955.
On January 19, 1956, Georgia married the love of her life, Robert Ralph Haefele, in the United Methodist Church of Douglas. They spent 55 years together raising a family and working hard. Georgia and Bob were blessed with three children, William Robert (Bill), Karma Jean, and Dorthea Rose.
Georgia was a hard worker and an even better cook. Her delicious homemade cinnamon rolls, bread rolls, and pies were sought after and enjoyed by those far and near. Georgia worked at many jobs, including book keeping and parts clerk, but her cooking was widely known as some of the best. She was a member of the LaBonte Homemakers for many years, a member of the Do-si Dancers square dancing club, was a Converse County 4-H leader, and secretary of the Douglas Women's Bowling Association for many years. Georgia loved to read, work crossword puzzles, jigsaw puzzles, cook, hunt asparagus in the spring, and visit with family and friends. She was very proud of her family and of being married to Bob for 55 years.
Georgia is survived by her husband of 55 years, Bob Haefele, of Douglas; children Bill (Misty) Haefele and their children, Kimber (Adam) James, Halie (Lance) Haefele, Shea Haefele, and Shonda Haefele; Karma (Kelly) Glause and their children, Kandi (T.J) Ossa, Krystal (Rob) Brewer, and Kody (Jordan); and Thea Haefele. Six great-grandchildren, Tavia Ossa, Kaedance Sternhagen, Karsten Ossa, Caleb James, Conner James, and Khloe Sternhagen. Siblings Bingo (Donna) Marburger, Fritzy (Bob) Boedeker, and Peg (Bob) Taylor.
Georgia was preceded in death by her father, Fred on July 7, 1976, and her mother, Hazel on March 19, 1995.
A memorial donation to the American Cancer Society, 333 S Beech St., Casper, WY 82601, in Georgia honor would be greatly appreciated by the family.
