Georgina “Georgie” Elizabeth Mealey
1926-2018
The passing of Georgina Elizabeth (Enman) (Ward) Mealey, or
“Georgie” as she was known, beloved wife of Charles W.
Mealey, occurred unexpectedly at the Saint John Regional Hospital,
Saint John NB on November 15, 2018. Georgie was born at Higgins Road,
Richmond, Prince Edward Island on October 23, 1926, the 12th child of
the late William Seymour and Janie Alice Enman.
She was the last of 12 children, five brothers and six sisters, and
the last of her immediate family. At the age of two, her family moved
to Saint John, NB where Georgie grew up and attended various grade
schools as well as junior high at Saint John High and then Modern
Business College on Union Street. She worked in various offices before
her first marriage in 1948 to the late L. Allan Ward of Pocologan, NB.
She then moved to Gander Newfoundland where her husband worked for
Trans Canada Airlines (T.C.A) and later Air Canada. He died in 1960
leaving her with three young children. She then moved to Pocologan
with her children to be near relatives. She later married Charles W.
Mealey of Pocolgan and they made their home there. Georgie loved the
Lord and accepted Jesus as her Lord and savior at a young age and was
a member of the former Germain Street Baptist Church. Upon moving to
Pocologan, she transfered her membership to the Pocologan United
Baptist Church where she held various offices in her younger years.
She also loved gardening and, when able, worked out in their many
flower beds. She also sang in many churches, both solos and in choirs,
for many weddings and funerals. Another interest of Georgie’s was
history and she especially enjoyed writing about the Pocologan area,
stories of her life and her children’s lives since moving here. She
was so proud of her book about Pocologan which was published in 2011.
Georgie and Charlie lived in their home in Pocologan for over 50
years.
Georgie leaves, besides her loving husband Charlie, her daughter; J.
Karen (Richard) Hawkins of Pennfield NB, sons: R. Brently
“Brent” (Jo Ann) Ward of Morna NB and J. Glenn Ward of
Blacks Harbour NB, two grandsons: Craig A. Ward of Musquash, NB and
Kyle A. Ward of Hampstead NB as well as three great-grandsons: Alex J.
Ward, Jaxon Ward and Cam Ward, also brother-in-law Kenneth Mealey and
sister-in-law Alice McLane, both of Pocologan, as well as many nieces,
nephews and cousins.
