25 Apr 2019Loved Genevieve “with an e” as she would say, from the day I met her (June 2009). She reminded me so much of my mom. I met her at the Inn at Garden Plaza where I work and where she was a resident for many, many years. Sad to know she is no longer amongst us. And glad to know she lived for so many years. My thoughts and prayers to her family and may she rest in eternal peace ❤️
