Genevieve was the fifth child of Kathryn (Keller) and Frank Heier Sr., and was born September 13, 1924 in Glen Ullin, ND.
In the early 1900s her parents’ families emigrated to the United States from Russia and settled in the Bismarck area.
Her brothers were Clement, Philip, Adam, Victor and Frank (all deceased).
Her sisters Magdalen, Leona and Clara also preceded her in death.
Surviving sisters include Marie Eve, Evangeline, Cecilia and Anna.
She married Edward Alexander Wanner on September 8, 1942 in Glen Ullin, North Dakota at St. Benedict’s Catholic Church. They lived in four states including North Dakota, Illinois, California and Oregon before settling in Kentucky.
Fifteen children were born to them – Charles Edward, Clement, Anna Marie, Bernadette Katherine, Clara Jane, Edward Victor, Sylvia, John Matthew and James Leo (twins), Patricia Genevieve, Rose Mary Ann, Michael Harold, Dennis Anthony, Frank Peter and Genevieve Gloria.
Genevieve (Jenny) and Edward were long-time residents of the Sacramento area and very active parishioners of our Lady of Lourdes Catholic Church.
Jenny served as President of the Women’s Council and helped with numerous church functions.
Her life ended as she lived it – with strength, vigor, wisdom, kindness and with love for all of us.
