She was born December 11, 1924, in Fairmont, W.Va., a daughter of the late John Russo and the late Nellie Russo Linsenmeyer. She graduated from the College of Mount St. Joseph, Cincinnati, with a degree in medical technology. After graduation she worked at the VA Hospital in Huntington and retired from the Cabell County Assessor’s Office. She was the oldest of five children and loved her role as the older sister. She also had two stepsisters and a stepbrother. She was married to Edmund “Mooney” George for 49 years, which were filled with fun, travel and great family experiences. Nothing gave her more joy than being with her family and having fun with her children, grandchildren, sisters, brothers, nieces, nephews, in-laws and out-laws. She was an avid and successful bridge player. A true beach bum, she particularly enjoyed time at Jekyll Island and Hilton Head with her family. She was a strong supporter of the Huntington YMCA, donating countless hours volunteering, supporting her kids in the swimming and basketball programs, serving on the board and working tirelessly for many years on the annual campaign drives. She volunteered for numerous organizations including the Huntington Museum, Catholic Daughters and St. Joseph Church, all of which she was a member. She was a constant presence for over 50 years at St. Joe basketball games and Marshall basketball and football games. She was also preceded in death by two brothers, Michael and Jimmy Joe Russo; a sister, Jenny Lou Linsenmeyer; two stepsisters, Dorothy Nenni and Nancy Aluise; and a stepbrother, Jim Linsenmeyer. She is survived by four sons, Alan (wife Cathy) of Hilton Head Island, S.C.; Greg (wife Liz) of Edgewood, Ky.; Mark (wife Samantha) of Huntington; Cris (wife Kittie) of Louisville, Ky.; one daughter, Barbara Ricks (husband Al) of Canfield, Ohio; thirteen grandchildren, Katie Mancini, Alan George Jr., Anna George, Michael, Brian, Kevin and Jordan Ricks, Elizabeth and Nick George, Davis, Conner and Allie George and Ramey George; six great-grandchildren; and many nieces and nephews.
