Georgette Staib Obituary
Georgette was born Jan. 29, 1918 and raised in Lindsborg, Kan. and Kansas City, Mo. She moved west as a young adult working in the war industry on the Manhattan Project during WWII. She then lived and worked in the San Francisco area as a legal secretary and met her future husband Conrad Staib. They were married and settled near Woodland in 1960.
Georgette was a 70 year member of the Alpha Iota Sorority, Oakland chapter, a long time docent for the Crocker Art Museum in Sacramento, and more recently a member of the Red Hat Society at University Retirement Center where she resided. She was involved with many other organizations and charities during her lifetime.
Georgette's love and concern for the handicapped was very evident in the giving of her time, energy and resources to Summerhouse in Woodland and the Yolo Employment Services.
Georgette was preceded in death by her husband Conrad, her son Eric, and her cousin Beth Feeney.
Georgette is survived by her daughter Lana Sorensen and husband Lance of Selah, Wash.; her grandchildren Erika Mentink and husband Jim of Auburn, Maine, Ryan Sorensen and wife Stephanie of Tijuana, Mexico, and T.J. Sorensen and wife Michelle of Portland, Ore.; her cousin Jean O'Connell, husband Jerry and their children Erin, Jim and Kerry of Belmont, Calif.; her sister Alice Howard of Flagler Beach, Fla.; her niece Ann Evans of Flagler Beach, Fla.; her nephew John Howard of Ft. Lauderdale, Fla.; her stepson Rolf Staib; her devoted caregivers April Trueblood of Davis and Shirley Whysong of Woodland; and all her friends at URC and in Yolo County.
A memorial service in honor of Georgette will be held at University Retirement Center, 1515 Shasta Drive, Davis on Sunday, Dec. 11, at 1 p.m.
