Fun Facts

People often wonder – was that her real voice. Yes it was. That is actually how she talked.

And fans wonder to this day what she passed away from at a friend’s house in Princeton. Fans don’t know, her agent doesn’t know, her family doesn’t know and even Georgia doesn’t know because she was member of Christian Science. And the first rule of Christian Science is they maintain that Christian Science prayer is most effective against illness and disease when not combined with medicine.
