Winthrop- Mrs. Jennie L. George, 81, passed away Saturday October 10, 2015 in the comfort of her home surrounded by the love and support of her family.

She was raised locally and attended the Brasher Falls- Stockholm School. On May 9, 1959 Jennie married Keith George at a little church in Nicholville with Pastor Wilbert Hull.

Jennie started work as a nurses aid at Pilgrim State Hospital and then onto Massena Memorial Hospital where she was a ward clerk; working in central supply for 20 years, respectfully for 32 years at MMH. Family meant the world to Jennie. She especially enjoyed holiday gatherings and time spent at family celebrations. She was always caring for and thinking of others before herself, a true matriarch of her family that will be greatly missed. She took pleasure in trips to the casino and her western music. Jennie was a dedicated member of the Red Hats, Quad Town Senior Citizens, and TOPS.

Always close to Jennie's heart is the memory of those who predeceased her: her daughter, Karen George, son, Steven George, granddaughter, Carin Alice Blain, and brothers Fred and John Lazore. Visitation will be Tuesday from 2-4 and 6-8. Jennies Funeral Service and Celebration of Life will be Wednesday at 1:00pm at the funeral home. Burial will follow at Winthrop Cemetery.
