Genevieve Elizabeth Elko (nee Berg)

Gen was born in St. Paul, Minnesota on January 4, 1939. She was one of four children to Regina (nee Schmidt) and Joseph Berg. She attended Sacred Heart Grade School and graduated from Johnson High School. She met the love of her life, Eugene John Elko, while roller-skating and they were married at Sacred Heart Parish. Gene and Gen loved to spend their time together at home and did not venture out much. They did enjoy time together with their families for the holidays.

She is survived by her dear sister-in-law, Eileen Berg; her nieces and nephews, Theresa (Lance) VanElsen of Oakdale, Joseph Berg of St. Michael, Daniel Berg of Maplewood, Charlene Boden of Oakdale, Linda Boden of Oakdale, and Gary Boden of Oakdale; and her great-nieces and great-nephews.
