Prince of Wales Collegiate. She was a gifted homemaker, ACW member and
choir member and was active in many Anglican parishes throughout
Newfoundland and New Brunswick with her husband and love of her life
Rev. Canon David Genge. She loved her many pets through the years and
enjoyed spending time gardening, baking and doing a wide variety of
crafts. Her standard of perfection for everything she did was
well-known.
She leaves to mourn her son Peter and grandson Michael, daughters
Heather (David) Bertin and Joanne Genge, her sister Marjorie (Gordon)
Morgan, brother Roy (Shirley) Woolridge as well as many other
relations and friends. She was predeceased by her husband David, her

The family would like to thank the staff of the Chateau de Champlain,

the ER and surgery departments. We would also like to thank friends
and family whose kind gestures and support were deeply appreciated and
certainly did not go unnoticed.
