My deepest sympathy to the family. I grew up at Blacksburg Christian Church where George and Genevieve were members. Genevieve and I shared a love for dolls, even though I was just a little girl, I loved to talk to her about dolls. May God be with all of you during this time. My thoughts and prayers are with you.
