Georgette H. Olmsted, born April 2, 1932 in Yverdon, Switzerland, passed away peacefully at home on Friday, September 19, 2008. She immigrated to the United States in 1954 and after a few years of extensive travel around the world, she married and moved to New Mexico in 1958. It was in Santa Fe where she raised her family. She was preceded in death by her son, Gregory Olmsted who died in 1986. She is survived by: John Olmsted and his wife Una, Michelle Olmsted and her fiance Michael, Anick Olmsted, Brian Nelson, his wife Tracy and their daughter Elizabeth, her grand dogs Ulee, Emma and Ella, and numerous friends and family including her adopted daughter Michelle Whiffen, her husband Doug, and their sons Matthew, Conner and Sam. We know Georgie is surrounded by all her family and friends who have gone before. We also hope Georgie has a pocket full of treats for all the furry four-legged friends who are surely there to greet her. Brief graveside services will be held Thursday, September 25, 2008, at 11:00 a.m., at Santa Fe Memorial Gardens, 417 Rodeo Road in Santa Fe. In lieu of flowers, the family requests that memorial contributions be made to the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation, New Mexico branch at: JDRF, 2501 San Pedro NE, Suite 116, Albuquerque, NM 87110.
