    Genny will always be part of my own memories, and so many others who grew up in Denfield, for the lovely gentle person she could always be counted on to be. Her family was always her priority but she is certainly an important part of our history too. We will be thinking of you Gord and Sharlene, Wayne and Judy, and David as well as her extended family, as you say goodbye but celebrate her life.
