What a loving, kind-hearted Auntee she was. She was always taking care of less fortunate children by sewing things for them and/or baby sitting them; through foster care and/or adoption. She was a beautiful person with a loving and giving spirit. I love her and I will miss her. Psalm 116:15: "Precious in the eyes of the Lord is the death of his saints."

I am so sorry to hear about the passing of Dear Aunt Geneva. She was such a sweet and dear person with the most beautiful smile. I remember when I went to New York as a child to stay with Aunt Geneva and Uncle TJ in the big house with all those children. (smile)Coming from a small family it was so amazing to see Aunt Genva in action cooking, cleaning and ironing clothes and keeping all of us in line. Among all that she made me feel special and that it was a joy to have me there even though she already had her hands full. I remember when I went off to college (77) she came to Georgia to bring me my graduation present and then came to Georgia to bring me a wedding gift (80). She did things in style, I was the only one in college who had an autograph Laundry Bag (I still have it) and every thing I needed for my journey off to school. Even Though she was no longer with Uncle TJ. I was still her niece and she loved me just the same. My cousins have been truly blessed to have a mother who was a virtuous woman who loved her family. Rest now sweet Aunt Geneva, your job is finish your work is complete and I know you are with our Savior and to you he said "well done my good and faithful servant."
To my cousins, I am sorry that I could not be there, we have tried to call but can not reach anyone, please email me or call (478) 461-1373.
love you all
Sheila Dobbs. (Frankie's daughter)

Hello Family,
We are in prayer as our hearts are saddened. I will always remember how Aunt Geneva was there during the many losses we have had in the past years and how she would visit Momma. Mom always talk about the stools she bought her for the kitchen. Aunt Geneva would drive to Preston like it was nothing. We are so bless to have been in her presence during her b'day part in 2006. There is calm in the 23rd Psalms. On behalf of Mom (Thelma) who could not make the trip. We love you.
