Georgia L. Rosado, of Lake Worth, Florida, passed peacefully June 10, 2026,surrounded by family and friends. She was 95. A native of Montgomery, N.Y., she was the daughter of George and Lottie Miller. Her childhood was spent on the family farm and attending a one-room schoolhouse.
Georgia later married Carmelo Rosado and gave birth to two daughters. Active in the Grange, Brownies and Girl Scouts and becoming a Girl Scout Leader, she engaged in anything involving her daughters. One of her favorite activities was singing in the church choir at St. Mary’s Church in Montgomery. She also enjoyed gardening and preserving produce from the garden, in addition to raising chickens and turkeys.
As her daughters grew, Georgia began to work outside the home as a seamstress. In later years, she moved to West Palm Beach, Florida where she lived with her sister, Agnes. She worked as a waitress at country clubs, mainly Quail Ridge. She became active in her church, writing letters for the prison ministry, singing in the choir, and performing as part of the living Christmas tree each year. After she learned to knit and crochet, family members were treated to beautiful homemade gifts. At a local Junior College, she enrolled in several classes including painting and used her skill to create treasured art work. An adventurous traveler, Georgia enjoyed numerous trips taking her from Florida to New York, Connecticut, California, Hawaii, and Canada. She also traveled with family to Bermuda, Puerto Rico, the Caribbean, Colorado, Georgia, and South Carolina. For many years, she returned to Montgomery to visit family, friends and the old homestead in the Winding Hills.
Georgia was loved by family, friends, and neighbors because of her joyful spirit, kindness and desire to spread love. Her favorite Bible verse was Philippians 4:13 “I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.” This verse allowed her to endure many hardships and disappointments during her long life, a life she considered blessed.
In addition to many wonderful friends, Georgia is survived by her sister Agnes Huopana, sister-in-law Wendy Miller, daughters Terese Linton of New York and Regina Covin of Connecticut, as well as treasured grandchildren, nieces and nephews. A Celebration of Life for Georgia was held on June 13, 2026 at Villa Madonna in West Palm Beach.
