I have such great memories of Gen as a member of Settlers Club and a friend. We fell out of touch when she and Laurence moved. Sweet, kind wonderful person. A light has been extinguished in our world. I am sorry for its loss.
Gen and I worked together at Northside Hospital. We had a wonderful time even when snowed in during the big blizzard back in the 60’s, and during a black out. Great nurse, great friend, rest well Genna Vee!
Gen and I raised our children together in Victor, NY. Gen was always there for the kids, and me, a great mom and grandmother. A great friend! The years flew by so fast. An Angel for sure!
Gen was a dear friend to my parents; Mary Jane and Rufino and me. She will be dearly missed. She always had a smile on her face and I know she was loved by many. God bless you dear Gen. Our sincere condolences to Larry and family.
