Georgianna "Georgie" Edwards McBurney, a key leader in Malibu's efforts for cityhood, died peacefully in her home Tuesday, June 11, surrounded by friends, family, caregivers and her cat, Angel. She was 85. "Georgianna worked hard to make Malibu its own special enclave, by helping to gain cityhood in 1991, serving as a telecommunications commissioner, working to make the dream of Legacy Park a reality and doing whatever she could to protect and enhance the community," her family wrote. She is survived by her three children, Holly, Jana and John, son-in-law, Hui Hui, daughter-in-law, Elisabeth, four grandchildren, Shan, Jim, T. George and Tianna, and her cat Angel. A memorial service is scheduled at Malibu City Hall, 23825 Stuart Ranch Road, for Saturday, June 15 at 11 a.m. In lieu of flowers, the family requests donations be made to the Malibu Community Labor Exchange at 23595 Civic Center Way in Malibu. Flowers may be sent to Malibu City Hall 23825 Stuart Ranch Road. Alternatively, donations may be made to one of the charities Georgianna held close to her heart: Malibu Labor Exchange P.O. Box 2273 Malibu, CA 90265 or Accelerate 77 (a greening project in the 77 neighborhoods of Chicago she helped map), c/o ICA 4750 N. Sheridan Rd. Chicago, Illinois 60640.
