Georgia was born on October 20, 1922 to Earl and Ida May (Gilmore) Elder. On February 17, 1945 she was married the love of her life, Harold Kay Andrews. He preceded her in death on August 16, 1957. She had many jobs during her life, seamstress at Ar-Cel Garment Factory, folder at Dorn Cloney Laundry, photo tech at Smith Studio, Choma Lab, and Ellis Fischer laundry. Her last position was as counter lady at One Hour Cleaners/Robinson's Cleaners on Paris Road. She loved talking to all their clients and the sugar cookies from Subway Shop next door. But the best job that she enjoyed was being wife, mother, and grandmother.
