Obituary for BRAMAN


Published in the Albuquerque Journal on Sunday December 03, 2006

Geni Lynn Braman, 50, a lifelong resident of Albuquerque, NM passed away on November 29, 2006. Geni was born on July 19, 1956 to Homer and Virginia (Austin) Prince of Albuquerque. Geni was an amazing person; if there was an "Annual Wife, Mother, Grandmother and Friend of the Year Award," she would have won it for the past thirty years. Since her "retirement," the care, teaching and love for her grandkids was paramount. She was a fine artist and was really becoming a world renowned Altered Art Creator. She loved quilting, sewing, stamping, cloth dyeing, and exploring new avenues with every project she did. If you own a piece of her art, you have something to treasure forever! Every life that she touched is deeply saddened by her passing. She enriched so many lives in the short period she walked upon this earth. She'd want you to remember her for who she was and what she did for her family and friends. Geni feared nothing; she was ready to move on to another world and life. Geni is best remembered as the family matriarch who passionately loved and cared for her husband, children, grandchildren and her pets. Geni is survived by her husband of nearly thirty-one years, Andy Braman of the family home; her children: Orlan E. Braman and wife, Meera, Amanda R. Braman, and Ina L. Braman and fiance, Dustin Cook, all of Albuquerque; Grandchildren: Shane Rex and Chloe Lynn Braman; mother, Virginia A. Baggerman of Amarillo, TX; brother, Samuel Prince of Albuquerque; sister, Marla Darnell of Amarillo, TX; sister-in-law, Harlene Braman of Bushland, TX; father-in-law and mother-in-law, Donald E. Braman, Jr. and wife, Janice; and her dear friends, including, Chris and Ken Dickinson and Debbie Stady. Geni was preceded in death by her father, Homer Prince and her mother-in-law, Katherine Braman. The Memorial Service, officiated by Ben Hanley, Sr., will be held in the Elena Gallegos Picnic Area Amphitheater (Tramway Road north, after Academy Road traffic light, turn right onto Simms Park Road and travel east, look for the Pink Flamingos) at 1:30 p.m. on Sunday, December 3, 2006. A Celebration of Geni's Life will be held after the Service at the home of Fenton and Barb Ayres, 1017 Arizona Street SE.
