Georgie was born in Chicago but raised in Rockford, IL where she has lived for 44 years. Georgie’s mother is from Jamaica and Georgie was the first American born on her mother’s side of the family. She loves finding the best places to shop with great deals, especially consignment stores. She says, “It’s not worth buying if it’s not on sale.” ![]() Georgie married her husband, Durian Bogan, on Aug 6th, 2022. She has one biological daughter, MaKayla, who is 18 and will be attending DePaul University this fall majoring in Film and Media studies. She also has two stepdaughters, Dejanara and Shuriah, and three grandchildren, two granddaughters, and one grandson. Georgie’s family also has a German shepherd Pitbull mix named Romeo. She says her favorite holiday is Halloween and her favorite food is Caribbean food. Georgie loves to sing and loves being near water. When Georgie isn’t at work, you’ll likely find her spending time by a nearby lake, beach, or pool. On dry land, Georgie enjoys relaxing through arts and crafting. Sometimes she and her daughter will look up painting ideas and just paint for fun. ![]() Georgie is the Director of Memory Care at Melody Living Lake in the Hills. Her job entails supervising the care for our Alzheimer’s and Dementia Care Residents at our memory care facility here in Illinois. Monitoring their health, creating resident programming, and supporting the wonderful staff that assists residents in their everyday care needs. Georgie’s career began in Social Services, her first job out of college was as a Social Service Assistant at a skilled nursing facility where she worked for 22 years. She was promoted to Director from assistant within the first year and held various positions within the facility such as activity director, receptionist, and dietary aide. Her last position at her previous facility was admission director. ![]() She has always had compassion for the senior community. Georgie’s father had her late in life, so at times, it was very similar to being raised by a grandparent due to the age difference. She says he taught her to be intuitive and understanding. He was a community leader so her passion for helping others came from him. Georgie’s mother worked in early education so Georgie’s creativity and patience came from her.
