Geneva Council

Geneva Elizabeth Council was a loving wife, mother, grandmother, great-grandmother, and faithful servant of the Lord. She lived a life filled with love, kindness, and devotion to her family and her faith. Geneva’s greatest desire was to share the love of Christ with others, and she never missed an opportunity to share the hope and joy she found in Him.

Geneva was a born-again Christian and a longtime member of Boston Church of God. Her faith was the foundation of her life. She loved the Lord deeply and shared the Gospel with anyone who would listen, always wanting others to know the same love and peace she found through her relationship with Christ.

Geneva was a devoted wife to her late husband, Frank Council. Together, they built a life filled with love, memories, and a beautiful partnership. Their love continued to shine through the many thoughtful ways they cared for one another. One of Geneva’s favorite things was watching the birds, and Frank always made sure the bird feeder was filled with birdseed so she could enjoy watching the birds come and go, even watching them on the swing. This simple gesture was a beautiful reflection of the love and thoughtfulness they shared.

Her greatest joy in life was her family. Geneva was a loving mother to her two sons, Jimmy(De) and Bobby (Kathy ) and her nephew Ellis (Janie)who were truly her world. She poured her heart into them and treasured the bond they shared.

She was preceded in death by her loving parents, Jim Thomas Aldridge and Naomi Aldridge; brothers, Fred Thomas Aldridge, Yewl Ladale Aldridge and Floyd Aldridge; and a sister, Alameda Aldridge and of course her husband, Frank.

Geneva enjoyed the simple joys in life and treasured the moments that brought her happiness. She loved taking trips with the Mountain Ladies, making memories, sharing laughter, and enjoying the friendships that meant so much to her.

Geneva was a woman whose love reached far beyond her immediate family. She had a caring heart and a genuine way of making people feel loved, welcomed, and valued. Those who knew her will remember her kindness, her warmth, her faith, and the love she gave so freely.

Geneva fought the good fight, finished the race, and kept the faith. She leaves behind a beautiful legacy of love, kindness, and unwavering faith in the Lord. While her family grieves her absence, they rejoice knowing she is no longer suffering and has been welcomed home by her Heavenly Father.

Her memory will be cherished, her love will never be forgotten, and the impact of her life will continue through the generations she so dearly loved.
