I will always cherish the many family reunions shared with Aunt Generva, especially the one on St. George Island, Fl. She was always such a lady, always pleasant and gracious. I'll miss her, but know that one day we'll all meet again. Annette Critton (Apalachicola, Florida)

Grace, dignity and refinement are what often comes to mind when I think of Aunt Generva. Her work as an educator has always inspired me and I will always cherish the wonderful talks that we shared with one another. I will miss her greatly and my thoughts and prayers are with her children and siblings during this very difficult time. May God continue to bless you. Latonya Leeks (Fayetteville, NC.)
