It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of Georgia Maurine Merino. She passed away at the age of 66 on Saturday, September 14, 2024, at McKay Dee Hospital in Ogden, Utah, surrounded by loved ones. Georgia was born on October 3, 1957, in Denver, Colorado, to LeeRoy Barker Sr. and Annabell Reatherford.
She lived in Clinton, Utah, with her husband of 27 years, David J. Merino, her mother, and their two dogs that she cherished, Ruger and Chevy.
Georgia was the kindest soul and was known for helping anyone she could. She was a giving, loving, kind, and caring person who was thoroughly loved by all who met and knew her. She enjoyed sewing, crafting, and baking up the best goodies for everyone she knew. If she ever heard of anyone in need, she was the first to jump in and offer help.
She worked at Intermountain Layton Clinic as a phlebotomist until she retired. Through this job she met so many amazing people that loved her greatly. Many of them referred to her as Mama Georgia or Grandma Georgia. She always went out of her way to make sure those around her felt loved and appreciated.
Georgia leaves behind her husband, David Merino; her children, Kimberly (Patrick) Williams and Bryan (Jade) Anderson. Georgia also leaves behind her two brothers, LeeRoy Barker Jr. and Dennis Barker. Also greatly feeling her loss are 8 grandchildren and 14 great-grandchildren that she loved with all her heart! She was preceded in death by her father, and tragically lost her son, Adam Anderson, in 1997.
