Genevieve Bogaczyk Obituary



Genevieve Yolande (Rubb) Bogaczyk, 45, of North Windham, passed away at home peacefully on Saturday (March 5, 2016). She leaves to mourn her passing her loving husband of 19 years, David and their beloved daughter, Jenna Marie; her parents, Donald and Yolande (Corbeil) Rubb of Columbia; two siblings and their spouses, Monique and Thomas Ryan of Hebron and Stephen and Susan Rubb of Glastonbury; her father-in-law, Clement Bogaczyk of Horseheads, NY; her beloved pugs, Emmy and Missy; and numerous extended family members and friends. Born in Manchester on Sept. 13, 1970, she grew up in Vernon and went on to earn her Bachelor of Science degree from Quinnipiac University, becoming a licensed Physical Therapist.

I can't tell you how incredibly sad and shocked I am to hear (read) of Gen's passing. My name is Mary Beth (King) Perry. I was Gen's roommate at Quinnipiac sophomore year. I met her freshman year as we lived on the same hall. Gen called me Kinger (my last name). She was the most carefree, vibrant, fun loving girl with that infectious smile...super smart too!!! I was traveling home with my family tonight from Brownstone Water park and remembered her exit where she lived. I often would drop/pick her up on weekends when I would travel back to Mass. I decided to search her in Facebook and saw she had passed recently. I think I read her obituary 20 times...my heart aches. She adored her parents , and crazy about her sister Mo and brother Stephen! I never had the pleasure of meeting her husband or daughter but they must be something so very special! Infinite hugs and love to you all from the her college roommate from south of Boston...I just can't wrap my head around this. Please tell that little girl of hers she came from the very best!!!

With love,

Don and Yogi, I recall your memorable daughter at a picnic when she was starting her PT career. I was so impressed with her as she made plans to go to Texas. I see that she carried on with her plans and added a new joyous daughter to the family, too. I'm so sorry to hear of her passing and offer my deepest sympathy.
