Obituary of Clarice Mary Genyn
On November 19th, 2021 Clarice Genyn peacefully passed away with family by her side. Long time loving companion of the late Murray (2021). Loving mother of the late Dennis (1996), Brenda (Bryan predeceased 2011), Kevin and Lisa (Dave). Special Nana to Chad, the late Jodi (1991), Jennifer, Nicole, James, Alicia, Sarah (Kyle), Emily, Kristin (Michael) and Kelsey (John). Great Nana to several wonderful great-great children. Lovingly remembered by the Copeland family.
A woman who above all else loved her family and enjoyed spending time laughing and dancing. She found joy and happiness when hosting her family and spending time with her grandchildren. The best times were at the trailer. Her kind heart will be greatly missed.
