Georgia Cline

Georgia Cline was a woman of God and loved by so many. Georgia is predeceased by her parents Johnnie & Elizabeth Stewart, sister Mary Bennett, son Gary Cline and grandchild Eric Doka. She is survived by her husband Carl Cline, brother Bert Stewart, sister Nettie White, daughters Janet Bures and Janee Doka, 9 grandchildren, and 22 great-grandchildren. Georgia was born in Elkhart, Kansas on February 22, 1937 and raised in Keyes, Oklahoma. Georgia met the love of her life when she was in the 7th grade. From 7th grade until the day she went to be with her Savior, Carl Cline was her only love. They were married on September 18, 1955 in Keyes, OK. Carl loved her dearly, never stopped providing for her, lived out his marriage vows, and was a testimony of “in sickness and in health, until death do us part.” Georgia would often be seen walking around Millington, TN where she and Carl moved in 1970 and continued to reside after Carl retired from the Navy. She loved her walks, usually walking twice a day greeting everyone she knew as she passed. Georgia was actively involved in First Baptist Church Millington where she served in the nursery for over 38 years. She worked with bed babies and loved each one of them dearly. Georgia worked for the Millington Telephone and Cable Company for 25+ years. She loved showing people she cared and “adopted” many into the family by her love. She was known for her chocolate chip cookies, sprinkle sugar cookies, and pies. She always ensured there were cookies in the freezer when out of town grandchildren arrived. Georgia loved her children and spoiled her grandchildren. Family was the most important part of Georgia’s life. She ensured there were family dinners and plenty of card games and dominoes. There was chaos, her home was loud, there was endless laughter and endless dishes, and she never once complained. She loved having her family in her home. Georgia loved the lake. This was time set apart for her children and grandchildren on the weekends complete with a picnic full of food, chocolate chip cookies perfectly melted by the sun, and Snickers candy bars in the cooler. She was an excellent water skier even into her 60’s. Georgia will be missed dearly. She loved unselfishly, cherished family, gave generously, welcomed everyone, and lived out a life worthy of her calling.
