Georgia McAlpine, age 88 from Aldie, VA passed away peacefully at home on Monday, April 23, 2018 after a long struggle with dementia. Georgia was born May 3, 1929 in Watersmeet, Michigan to Jennie and Harry Chiochios. She married Kenneth R. McAlpine on Christmas Eve, 1952. Georgie (as we affectionately call her) was fierce in her love of her children and grandchildren, as well as a couple of unofficially adopted women who lost their own mothers. Her other loves included all Detroit sports (particularly the Tigers), casino's, race tracks, bingo halls and scratch off lottery tickets (yes there is a theme here). And last but not least, ironing. She was preceded in death by her parents and six siblings and survived by her two siblings, Athens Balodimas and Angie Lolakos; four children: Susan Woodhouse (Daniel), Karen McAlpine, Jennifer Neiman (Keith), Kenneth R. McAlpine Jr. (Barbara); nine grandchildren: Bert Woodhouse (Roxanne), Blake Woodhouse, Victoria Trummer (Stefan), Jessica Winne (Matt), Eric Neiman (Laura), Jenna McAlpine, Hunter Garth, Shelby McAlpine, Allison McAlpine, eight great grandchildren, Trent, Andrew, Reese, Lukas, Evan, Karina, Violet, Hayden, numerous nieces, nephews and many friends. There will be a service for Georgia on Wednesday, May 16, 2018 at Clifton Presbyterian Church, 12748 Richards Lane, Clifton, VA at 2:00 pm followed by a celebration of Georgia's life directly next door at Trummer's on Main. In lieu of flowers, memorials may be made to Alzheimer's Association at www.alz.org Special thanks to Polly Zacholl, our angel sent to us from God for the amazing and loving care she provided our Georgie until the end.
