GRAVLEJS

Genevieve "Jenny" (Sawyer) Gravlejs, of East Hartford, beloved wife of 24 years 
to Arthur Gravlejs, entered into eternal rest on Saturday, May 19, 2001, at Hartford 
Hospital, after a long illness.

Born on March 9, 1937, in Willimantic, the daughter of Katherine and the late Stanley 
Sawyer, Jenny had resided in the East Hartford area most of her life.

Besides her husband, Jenny is survived by her daughter and son-in-law, Rosemarie and 
Edward Curtin of East Hartford; and her son and daughter-in-law, Michael and Rebecca 
Kenny of Pensacola, Fla., her son, David Kenny of Manchester, and her son and 
daughter-in-law, Mark and Jane Kenny of Pensacola. Jenny also is survived by her sisters 
and brothers-in-law, Geraldine and Ronald Webster of Canaan, Vt., Barbara and Dennis 
McClure of Willimantic, and Elsie and Robert Hart of Canaan, Maine; her brother, Stanley 
Sawyer Jr. of Willimantic; her grandchildren, Tony, Donny, David, Brenda, Melissa, 
Beth-Ann, A.J., Justin, and Ethan; and many cousins, nieces, nephews, and dear friends.

Jenny was a courageous woman who will be sorely missed by those who knew and loved her. 
Jenny's family would like to acknowledge the special care and compassion given by the 
staff at Hartford Hospital and Hartford Transplant Associates.

Calling hours will be from 6 to 9 p.m., with a prayer service at 8 p.m., Tuesday, 
May 22, at Newkirk & Whitney Funeral Home, 318 Burnside Ave., East Hartford.
