Bio

OBITUARY- Georgia Kusy, 86, of Albert Lea, died Tuesday, March 19, 2002, at her home in Albert Lea. She was born May 11, 1915, to John, Sr. and Anna (Shebbal) Vomacka in Oakland Township. She attended rural schools near Oakland and Myrtle. She worked on the family farm and in other homes cleaning and caring for the sick. She also did seasonal work in the fields harvesting potatoes and onions and topping carrots. On Sept. 28, 1935, she married Eddie Kusy in Albert Lea. The couple farmed in the Myrtle and Hayward areas until their move to St. Ansgar, Iowa where they were farm hands for the next 23 years. Georgia was a member of the Music Mother's Club and was involved in helping with many banquets in the area. She enjoyed cooking, baking, sewing and doing fancy work. Eddie and Georgia enjoyed gardening and canning and raised several different kinds of poultry and domestic rabbits for food. They enjoyed fishing and camping with their children. During the winter, the family trapped hoping to earn extra money for Christmas. They enjoyed working and playing together and were very close.
