Gen and Lee were married on August 25, 1951 in Willmar, Minnesota and the couple enjoyed 46 years together. Gen worked hard to provide a comfortable home and raise their children. Gen was also an active grandmother hosting many sleepovers and attending sporting events. She enjoyed keeping in touch with all of her family through phone calls and countless cards and letters, which are treasured memories of her support and encouragement. She took great pride in her family! She was ecstatic to finally have become a Great Gram in the past year. Another interest of Gen’s was traveling. Gen and Lee took many trips to interesting places, always making sure to send postcards to family back home. After Lee past away, Gen continued to travel with friends and grandchildren, always excited to see new sites.
