She was born in Leota, Minnesota on September 4, 1925 to Peter and Jennie Vanden Bosch. She was the youngest of 12 children.
Jeneva left the farm for Chicago, IL. She met and married Henry Hoeks, a soldier/carpenter home form WWII. They shared life and love for 66 years, had a family of 5 and raised them in the knowledge of God. They lived in Chicago, IL, Tuscon, AZ, Redlands, CA, Olympia, WA and retired to Visalia, CA.
Jeneva’s greatest joy was to be a mother and grandmother, as well as loving others and her church family, teaching the word of God in Bible Study Fellowship and her church. She was well loved by all and faithfully prayed until the moment God took her home to Heaven.
Jeneva is cherished by her children: Jeanne (Phil) Ewalt of Redlands, CA, Sharon (Jim) Van Foeken of Ivanhoe, CA, Mark (Dorey) Hoeks of Spokane, WA, Tim (Patti) Hoeks of Olympia, WA and Paul (Trudy) Hoeks of Auburn, WA.
