Genofeva Rowe Glidden, age 92, of Dover Point Road, Dover, NH, passed away on January 17, 2023 after a 7 week battle with complications from gall bladder surgery.
Genofeva was born on November 24, 1930 to Markus and Theresa (Wagner) Frankenberger in Pocking, Bavaria, Germany. After World War II she followed two of her sisters to Rochester, NH. She met and married Maurice Rowe in 1954 and moved into their home at 12 Dewey St. in Rochester. In years following their marriage she and Maurice had three children. Daughter, Nancy, predeceased her in infancy. Maurice passed in 1972 and she later married Warren Glidden, who also predeceased her.
Genofeva was a passionate and lively 92 year old and when she wasn't filling her home with warmth, Lebkuchen, good times and holiday meals she could be found raking pine needles and working in her yard, hauling wood, shoveling and otherwise doing things she should not be doing at 92.
