I will forever miss you and your sultry voice.Your laughter and your smile. One day I will see you again, as I will my father and the rest of my aunts and uncles. May you rest in peace.

The Holy Ocean

We,
like an ocean wave dance briefly
on the shore of life
only to return to the Holy Ocean from whence we came.

Yet our dance forever changes the shore,
creating life and joy that ripples throughout eternity.

My aunt Boogie's life ripples throughout eternity in her children and all those she touched with her care and love, especially me.

Dear Cousins,
I will always remember Aunt Genevieve as a kind, vivacious lady who filled each room she entered with life. You felt good just being around her. My parents, David and Mary Cordova, loved Boogie and always, always looked for opportunities to visit with her. Boogie will always be loved and her memory cherished in our family.
With loving sympathy,
