Geneva was born at the family ranch near Elida on November 2, 1934, to Kary P. and Vera M. (Myers) Wall and went to be with the Lord on September 21, 2012, in Clovis. She was raised in Elida and graduated from Elida High School in 1952. In 1953, she married Bob Daugherty in Elida and the two ranched and raised their family in the Elida area. Bob passed in 1975 and she became a bookkeeper for the school system. Geneva was a very devoted member of the Elida Methodist Church, a member of the United Methodist Women's Association and member of the Eastern Star. She was always very active in the Elida community. Most of all she was a very devoted and loving wife, mother, grandmother, great-grandmother, and a friend to all.
