Personal
Confirmation
My name is Sylvia Dickens. I met Geny
(grandma geny) approximately 25 years
ago when I travelled to eastern Ontario.
We met at the Bed and Breakfast
(Grandma's House) in Prescott which she
owned at the time.
We became friends almost immediately
and spent many hours sitting on her
front porch sharing our life stories. We
learned that we share many similar
backgrounds, tastes and ideas. The
moment I visited her B&B, I saw how
talented she is.... the wall hangings,
the large dolls, her decoratively
painted milk cans, watering cans and other items. You
can see more of her creations on
Geny's
Creations page.
And, of course, it is hard to miss
her enthusiasm and zest for life.
Geny took me to her art studio in the
country where she did most of her work.
Her home was quaint and homey, like her
B&B. I loved visiting. Her French
heritage really shines through, from her
decorative ideas to the meals she cooks
to the welcoming atmosphere that greets
all visitors.
During those 25 years, I have come to
know Geny very well. She is a generous
and talented person who has a very
active mind, even though she is in her
late 70s now (as she likes to keep
reminding me).
I'm more than pleased to let you know
that Geny is a trustworthy individual
who cares a lot about children. I saw
how she interacted with them during one
of her family reunions on the family farm.
Her mind is constantly overflowing with
so many ideas that she
can barely handle them.
You are wise to be concerned about
internet safety, especially where your
children are concerned. And that's why I
wanted to give you this feedback on what
I know of her. I assure you that at
grandma geny's
fun house, you can feel
comfortable knowing that your children
are in good hands.
Who is Sylvia Dickens and why
should you trust her?
I am an award-winning journalist who
is now semi-retired and living in
Ontario. Several years ago, I registered
to become a private investigator. My
fingerprints are on file with the Royal
Canadian Mounted Police as required for
the PI license.
Shortly after I met Geny, I worked
for The Reporter, a community newspaper in Gananoque,
Ontario where I won a journalism award
for a major historical feature. I now
spend most of my time working online,
writing and marketing my own sites.
I helped Geny to create this site and
will continue to assist her with this
great project.
