Geneva Foster, 85, went to be with her Lord and Savior on November 4, 2006. She was born January 17, 1921 in Green Forest, AR to Elzie G. and Della Gay (Shrum) Wise. She was married on May 27, 1940 to Rev. Carl A. Foster. Geneva was a pastor's wife, Sunday school teacher, and beautician.

She is preceded in death by parents; husband; three brothers and three sisters. Survivors include her children, Carlene, Ed, Marcia and husband Mark; sisters, Florene, Opal, Lola; nine grandchildren, 14 great-grandchildren, and one great-great grandchild.
