Geraldine Dorothy Ray's Obituary
Geraldine Dorothy Ray, age 78 of Austell passed away November 22, 2024.
A lifelong fan of Golden Girls and Little House on the Prairie, Geraldine found joy in the simple pleasures of life. She was a regular customer at her favorite restaurant, Wallace BBQ. Her love for her dogs was unmatched – they were a source of companionship and love in her life. An artist at heart, she loved painting and crafts.
Geraldine’s stubborn and opinionated nature was a hallmark of her character. She was never afraid to speak her mind and stand up for what she believed in. She will be deeply missed by all who had the privilege of knowing her.
She was preceded in death by her husband, Bobby Lee Ray; parents, Claude and Hattie Weaver.
She is survived by her children, Patsy Garner (Robert) and Jackie Ray (Nancy); siblings, Lee Weaver (Connie), Tonya Harbin (Rick), and Johnny Hawkins; grandchildren, Janna, Destiny, Jayda, Larry, and JoAnna; and great-grandchildren, Armanii and Stella.
A memorial service honoring Geraldine’s life will be held on Tuesday, November 26th 1:00 PM with Dr. Farren Roper officiating. The family will receive friends before the service from 12:00-1:00 PM.
