Dear Mary Ann & Family,

Genie truly is my father's "brother from another mother." I'm sorry I can't be there to pay my respects. I feel incredibly saddened by your loss. Genie's passing leaves a void in all of the lives that he touched. May you find comfort in the knowledge that he is resting in the loving arms of our Lord, and in the company of some very good friends!

With love and prayers,
Teresa (Carney) Montgomery
