Georgia Holt was a singer, actress, and model. She had guest appearances on the classic TV sitcoms “I Love Lucy” and “The Adventures of Ozzie and Harriet” in the 1950s. She was briefly married to truck driver John Sarkisian and the pair divorced soon after having Cher. Cher helped her mother release her only album, “Honky Tonk Woman” in 2013. Holt first recorded the songs in 1980 with Elvis Presley’s band. The making of the album was part of a Lifetime documentary in 2013 titled “Dear Mom, Love Cher,” which took a closer look at the family’s history.
Farewell to Cher’s amazing mother Georgia Holt at the age of 96. Sometimes the longer you have them, the harder the loss can be. I’ll never forget Georgia’s appearance on this classic episode of “I Love Lucy”, playing a model in Paris. What a wonderful legacy she has left behind. pic.twitter.com/o6PTyktbuz
