[Vwoolf] Sad News

Wed Mar 22 01:18:11 EDT 2017

Terribly sad news to wake up to. Dear Georgia you have been so very, very kind and wonderful to everybody you met and to me. We crossed paths at conferences, sat together at a conference dinner and we talked. So many memories, I will never forget you. My heart goes out to her nearest and dearest. She will be missed by many.

What I remember best (and I did not know Georgia well) over the course of many years of Woolf conferences, was her steady, calm manner and her smile from the eyes downward. I’ve been thinking of her all day and so regretting that her life ended too soon.

Such a good spirit and fine scholar.  Remember the orphaned cat found at the end of the St. Louis Woolf Conference?  Of course it got to live out its life with her!

Shocking news.  I join everyone who knew Georgia in quiet and personal grief,  I remember her VWS Conference in St. Louis--the weather was awful--so much rain--so many flights cancelled or postponed.  And she was admirably focused and unfazed by it all.  She will be missed by us all.

Hello, Everyone,

It is with deep sorrow that the I share with you the news that Georgia Johnston has passed away after a long battle with cancer. In the Woolf community, she will be remembered as a brilliant, generous scholar and caring friend, and we will keep you informed about plans to honor her and pay tribute.

May she rest in peace.

Best,

Kristin
