Georgia Ann Hoon

New Middletown - Georgia Ann Hoon, 71, passed on to eternal life with her Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, on Wednesday, January 11, 2023, at her home surrounded by her loving family.

Georgia was born September 27, 1951 in Youngstown, OH, a daughter of Phoebe Leach.

She graduated from Cardinal Mooney High School in 1969 and was a lifelong resident of the Mahoning Valley.

Georgia worked for Graybar Electric in Youngstown as an electrical commodity manager for 25 years, retiring in 2005.

She was a member of New Life Church in Poland where she served on the Prayer Team.

Every year, Georgia enjoyed planting and working in her vegetable garden, feeding the birds in her yard, and birdwatching. She treasured time with family and served spaghetti dinner for them every Sunday for several decades.  She often claimed that her grandchildren were her greatest reward.  She always looked forward to family vacations, especially the family beach trips. When she was traveling, she would visit different arboretum and flower gardens.   In her free time, she enjoyed playing cards and going for long walks.

(Hannah Russo, fiancee') Hoon, Jr. of New Middletown, OH; five grandchildren, Brianna Gleghorn, Mackenzie Gleghorn, Cade Gleghorn, Maximus Pirko, and Rockston Pirko; three sisters, Thelma (Jerry) Gawlik of Lisbon, OH, Deborah (Ray) Ross of Austintown, OH, and Patricia (Robert) Cappitte of Struthers, OH.

Besides her mother, Phoebe Reese, Georgia was preceded in death by her loving husband of 47 years, Raymond D. Hoon, whom she married on November 25, 1972 and died August 13, 2020; and her brother, Samuel Reese, Jr.
