A private Celebration of Life will be held to honor Geneva with her family and friends. In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions can be made in Nena's name to Door of Hope Women's Shelter. Mail checks to 525 N. Broad Avenue, Wilmington, CA 90744 write "Nena Best Walsh Memorial Fund" in the memo line. Our Vergil Best was instrumental in the construction of the Door of Hope Women's shelter with Rolling Hills Covenant Church.

You may also make a memorial contribution in Nena's name to a non-profit agency of your choice that conducts research and supports families affected by Dementia.
