Aloha to Genie's family, ( Not sure that my first post made it, since it doesn't appear-if it shows up, please accept both posts)
I was so sad to see that Genie had passed. She was our neighbor in Kailua Kona in the early 80's. What a talented artist, loving person and caring and sharing friend. My husband Joe was an artist and the two of them shared many a project and discussion. Time, life paths and the size of the island (Big) separated us over time. We still kept in contact and occasionally visited. One of my retirement plans was a visit to see her. I am so sad that that won't happen, and so sorry for you, her family, not to have her in your lives going forward. What an inspired artist! in many media, subject, and realms.
Her surrounds always reflected her love of beauty, her huge imagination, and grand projects. She created beauty in her own life, and in many others. I'm thankful to have known her. Please let me know if you hold a service for her here. With deep sympathy and affection for you and for Genie. Sandy Barr Rivera 808 775-9191
