Georgie is survived by all 8 of her children: Carolyn Bilski (Joe), Melvin Cerny (Brenda), Janet Hunt (Steve), David Cerny (Diane), Joyce Junco, Steven Cerny (Donna), Leroy Cerny, and Donna Billnoske (Steven). In addition, she is survived by 18 grandchildren, 29 great-grandchildren, and many others whom she loved dearly.

Georgie was born in Wallis, Texas on February 22, 1932. She lived in several places in her early years before her family settled in the Mixville Community of Frydek near her maternal grandparents. She was the youngest of the 4 children. Georgie always saw the importance of education. She grew up attending a small country school in Frydek where she made a point to be present despite any obstacles the weather may have presented. She dreamed of being a teacher and inspired many of her children to become educators. She graduated at the top of her class in 1949 from Sealy High School and went on to attend business school in Houston, Texas. On December 29, 1951, she married Anton, the love of her life. Georgie followed him as he served in the Army for the first years of their marriage before eventually settling in Sealy, TX where they built a home and became an established part of the community. Together, Anton and Georgie raised 8 children who were blessed to have them as parents. Georgie was the ultimate matriarch and example of unwavering love. She was one of the most faithful, respectful, caring, and accepting individuals who led by her actions rather than words. She loved going to her kids’ and grandkids’ events and attended as many as she could. Everyone claimed to be her favorite because that’s how special she made each person feel. She would always offer a listening ear and became “the keeper of all secrets” as everyone knew her trust was unmatched. No one ever left her house hungry. There was no better place to be than sitting around her kitchen table sharing stories and eating her specialty, German chocolate cake. She treasured the daily lunches and suppers with her kids, grandkids, and whoever else showed up. She didn’t say much, but she always had some piece of wisdom or wisecrack to add to the lively discussions. We are thankful for her time on Earth and have absolutely no doubt that she is in Heaven with the love of her life and our sweet Nicole. Thanks for a lifetime of love and memories. Until we meet again, rest easy, dance with the angels, keep watching over us just as you always have, and have a German chocolate cake ready for us. |
