Georgia Tobaben

Georgia Belle Tobaben touched the lives of many with her kindness and easy laugh. She was a devoted wife, mother, grandmother, cousin and friend, and was active in her community.

She grew up in Kansas City with two siblings and a large extended family. She married childhood friend Wesley Tobaben in 1951. They relocated to Southern California a few years later where they welcomed son Cary and daughter Candi.

Georgia was deeply involved with the West Covina Woman’s Club for over 50 years including 3 terms as president. She also enjoyed playing piano, bridge and golf as well as sewing and accomplishing household projects. Georgia and Wes always had a very full social life. The family went on many camping and road trips. When the kids were older, Georgia worked as a bookkeeper.

Sadly, Wes passed away soon after their 51st anniversary. Georgia continued to travel and keep up with family and friends. She celebrated her 94th birthday in January.

Georgia is survived by her children Cary (Lee) Tobaben and Candace (Dan) Hersch, grandchildren Ruby Hersch, Reese(Jade) Tobaben and Cosmo Hersch, and great-granddaughter Sadie Tobaben.
