It's only just come to my notice that our very good, fun loving friend and valued member of RootsChat, passed away August 29th after a short illness.

I'm sure you will all join with me in sending condolences to her partner at this very sad time.

Genie m'love.......... you really will be missed.

This is such sad news, Genie was a wonderful person, with a marvellous sense of humour and as you say, Barbara, a very valued member of RootsChat.  She will be missed - she brought such fun and laughter to the boards.  My condolences to her partner.

What a lovely photo of her.
