I´m shocked and saddened by the news of Gen´s passing. My heartfelt condolences go out to her family. I can remember spending many days at their home as a friend of her son Chris. I remember her always as a kind, caring and considerate person. I happened to see her as recently as this pass September at my fathers funeral where she was, as always, a part of the wonderful group that helps with the luncheons at St Mary Catholic Church in Three Oaks. As always she was as kind and comforting as I had remembered. It was such a nice surprise to see her at such a trying time. I will remember her fondly.
