    Wow, this lady has lived to the fullest. What an inspiration.

    My grandma lived to the same age but although her garden was her greatest love, she could have been a more positive person....
    It's a little secret you didn't know about us women. We're all closet Visigoths.

    {{{{carpaltunnel}}}} Those who guide us come in all shapes, sizes and ages. She sounds like she lived a very full life. What a pleasure for you to have been able to cross her path....

    (((Carpal))) Sounds like Geneva was an inspiration. We should all hope to be like her when we grow up.

    My mom said something to me that cut like a knife about her 90 year old mother "It is a cruel way that the mind is going strong but the body can't keep up".

    I wish Geneva had been a friend of mine, too. I'm sorry she's gone, but boy did she really live this life- something I'm sure we all hope to do well.
