Genevieve Culver

My fondest memories of Gen were her preparing the family Thanksgiving dinner where all of the Culver's and relatives plus friends of family gathered together to share her bounteous tables. We all brought something but it was Gen who oversaw the whole affair. It was on the wooden table in the kitchen when we stacked all the goodies that would fit and where Carson cut the turkey and we ladelled the potatoes, squash, beans, corn etc. She was also the gracious hostess who made an awesome custard pie which my son Joshua never managed to get enough of. Her passing means that I am now the oldest of the clan. Sister in Law, Anna Beth Henneman Culver.

I have many fond memories growing up with the Culver family. Aunt Gen could do know wrong in my eyes. One thing I do remember liked it happen yesterday. Aunt Gen would drive with pedal to the metal. Carson and I would side on the floor of the front seat. I my memory service me correct it was Desoto or Chrysler. I could write a book of things we kids to make Aunt Gen's life a living hell. Her heart was so big she would scold and the laugh at our acts of wrong. Love You Aunt Gen will miss you.

Please accept my deepest sympathy in the recent passing of Mrs. Culver; having visited Whig Church, I always enjoyed her spirit and knew some of her relatives in my Platteville youth (Donna Taylor, Carson Culver) and most recently Sue for whom I substituted on piano when home from Peoria. Thoughts and prayers are with her family at this time of grieving; I can also empathize with the loss of a mother. God Bless. Respectfully, Carolyn Schuldt PHS 1960 UWP 1964
