Geraldine Timms, 92, of Argos, Indiana passed away
on Wednesday, June 4, 2008 at 7:55AM.
Geraldine was born in Leiters Ford, Indiana on
September 6, 1915 to Donald and Dessa Brugh. She
was married to Charles Timms on July 21, 1935. He
preceded her in death on November 27, 1973. She
was also preceded in death by her sister - Donnabelle
Boling and great-granddaughter - Kelley Hunt.
Geraldine was employed by the Chicago Board of
Education during the 1950's and 1960's as lunchroom
supervisor until her retirement in 1976. After her
retirement, she was employed by the Culver Academy
and received her realtors license while in her 70's.
She was in the real estate business until failing vision
prevented her from continuing sales of real estate.
She was a traveler. Vacation time might find her
following the Alaskan Pipeline with her friends, riding
a camel in Africa, or flying to Hawaii with her daughter
and granddaughter, but her greatest interest was her
farm, the land and her crops.
Geraldine is survived by her brothers - Kenneth
(Darlene) Brugh of Yorkville, Illinois and Ernest
(Florence) Brugh of Sebring, Florida; her daughter -
Phyllis (Ray) Cox of Evansville, Indiana,
granddaughter - Tami Woodward of Monterey,
Indiana, great-grandsons - Corey (Monica) Hunt and
Cody Hunt of Culver, Indiana, great-great
granddaughter - Reyonica Hunt of Culver, and several
nieces and nephews.

In lieu of flowers, the family requests contributions to
the Grace UCC General Fund.

charge of arrangements.
