Genetta Eilene Humphries, loving mother, grandmother, and great-grandmother of Brunswick, OH, passed away at the age of "39".

Genetta had a passion for many things and was a gardener and an avid fan of sports, specifically the Cleveland Browns. Her greatest attributes were her outward love for others, quick wit, and infectious smiles. Among her greatest loves were her grandchildren and great-grandchildren. The children were drawn to her like a magnet and she loved showering them with love. Genetta loved the Lord, and was an active member of Medina Assembly of God and was involved for years in making peanut butter and coconut eggs with the ladies group.
