I loved Aunty Genoa's wonderful music. She will be greatly missed!!

I can just hear her singing on the other side of the veil-that beautiful soprano voice ringing through the heavens-what a glorious tradition she has taken with her-and fortunatley for us-also left some behind in the many recordings of her songs. We love you Aunty. and we miss you.

Auntie Genoa will be missed; however, her legacy is a treasure that will continue to inspire us all for generations to come. We were fortunate to see her perform in Whittier last year. Originally, from Hawaii, we have collected Auntie Genoa's music over the years. She blessed our lives beyond measure.

Me ke aloha pumehana.
