GEORGIA JESSUP

Remembering one remarkable lady.

She was my neighbor since I was only one years old. I remember gazing in awe at her amazing art that now continues to inspire me looking to become an art major. She was always there for me as I was growing up, giving gifts to my sister and I on random occasions to make us smile. When I heard about her passing it had been 3 years since I moved houses and saw her last. My heart is with her family. Her legacy truly lives on, Rest In Peace.

To her family, May your fond memories temper your grief and may she now enjoy peace, love, grace and understanding. She was blessed with a rich and talented life.So, all is well,

she was my eighth and ninth great homeroom teacher and art Teacher at Eliot Jr. High Schoo. There are teachers who you barely remember and there are those who had a major impact on your life. Mrs Jessup was just that. She saw something in me that I didn't see in my self...maybe it was the creative spirit..but she nurtured me those two years, encouraged me, made me feel like I could accomplish anything I set out to do. Being in her class was an absolute joy. These many years later, she stands...

To The Jessup Family: May the love of God surrounds, enfolds, sustains and comfort you.

My thoughts and prayers are with the family of Mrs. Jessup. Mrs. Jessup was a remarkably talented woman. She was a gifted artist, and also a devoted mother, grandmother, mother in law ( to my sister and others), and an inspiration to many. She will leave a legacy of strength, talent, beauty, and love.

Mrs. Jessup was my Art Teacher when I was a student at Eliot Jr. High School. She was a fantastic teacher and person that made Art fascinating and fun. She was always positive, upbeat and kind. May she rest in peace.

Georgia was a fantastic, positive role model to many artists, art educators, and people in general. She was a true inspiration who will be remembered for a very long time by multiple generations of diverse audiences. I feel proud to have known her, and only wish we could have spent more time together creatively.

May you rest in peace Georgia.
