Since Mr. Genoway's death, she successfully carried on her floral work until recent years when her failing health made it necessary to turn the business over to her youngest son, Sam. She bore her suffering unto herself and only the past winter did she give up her work entirely. She was taken to the Ontario hospital March 24 for an operation. A cancer was revealed. Medical science could not help her; only comfort and care where possible to relieve the intense pain which she suffered to the last. She was removed to her home the Wednesday preceded her death, the end came the following Tuesday at 6:45 p.m. Besides her immediate family, she leaves to mourn her death thirteen grandchildren and a large circle of friends. Funeral services were held at the Brethren church at 2:30 April 11. Interment was made in the Riverside cemetery.
