One of the great RP women that we all looked up to as kids and now as adults. Mrs C was so much fun to be around! Always looked forward to seeing her, especially at the St Jerome's St.Paddy's day party! Will always remember her loving and friendly spirit! Heaven just gained another angel. My deepest sympathies to all of the Collerans on the loss of your beautiful mother.

Genevieve, Hope the light of the candle is guiding you to heaven.

My deepest condolences to All Genevieve's children and grandchildren of losing the wonderful mother and grandmother, let say letting Her go to heaven.
Genevieve with Her family were my extended family in the USA, who included me to Her closest circle.

I was and will be forever appreciative to You and to your family for that.

For the Thanksgiving in 1985 I was invited to Genevieve's home along with Richard my late husband and His mother Rose. I remember as today All...

On one occasion Penny remarked she was going to outlive Rosie and she sure did, by 8 years. If it wasn't for the virus she may have still be with you. I pray for Penny and her family at this time.

Gen used to bring jokes to work . I remember one about boyfriends named Art Ritis, etc,. When Shirley and I spoke, the first thing she said was that Gen was always positive. That was so true. She always spoke of her family so lovingly. When I was sick, she brought me food, as she knew my family was out if town. I have always smiled when I thought of her.

The greatest neighbor ever!! May she rest in peace
