A mother holds her children’s hands for a little while and their hearts forever…. Surrounded by her family and those that meant the world to her, Geneva G.

She was a graduate of Tioga Central High School and attended Tompkins Cortland Community College. Geneva had many hats, many will remember her for she was employed at the Riverview Manor Nursing Home, Lounsberry Truck Stop but most will remember her for the love she shared as she opened her home and heart as a daycare provider. Geneva treasured the time spent with family. She enjoyed crocheting and tenderly loved to crochet blankets, hats and mittens for those in need. She was a member and attended the Owego Baptist Church.
