I didn't know Genny very well but as a volunteer for Meals on Wheels I had the pleasure of delivering lunches to her for the last year. Genny was always so sweet, greeted me with kind words along with a warm, welcoming smile, and sometimes even gave me treats for my daughter! She was one of the deliveries I looked forward to the most and I will miss seeing her. Deepest condolences to her family and friends! Laura

Three trees for the three Neifert girls. Always together. I have missed Aunt Gennys loving smile and contagious laugh. Praying for the family.
