Geneva L. Murray, 78, of Oviedo, Florida departed this life on Friday, March 27, 2026. Geneva was born on April 5, 1947 in Vandemere, NC to the late Annie Fisher and James Ashe. Professionally, she worked in banking risk management for several years.

Geneva was a very kind, generous, loving woman with a heart of gold. She dedicated her life to her raising and caring for her beloved family. She was an active and faithful member of New Covenant Baptist Church of Orlando, even as her health began to decline. She served faithfully as a Deaconess and in any capacity she was asked to do. She instilled love, wisdom, and Christian values for her children and family to follow. She was a devoted mother, sister, grandmother and friend who will be deeply missed by all who knew her.

Deaconess Geneva leaves her precious memories with her loving children, Audra (Michael) Turner, Charles (Sherita) Murray Jr.; sister, Anne Smith; brothers, Dexter (Diane) Fisher, Anthony Fisher; 4 grandchildren; and a host of other relatives, church family and dear friends.

    We, here in Vandemere, NC, were saddened to hear of the passing of Geneva. Before her family moved to New Bern, she spent many of her formative years in Vandemere at her grandparents’ home. “Ginny” as we called her was a smart young girl with a vibrant, fun- loving personality. She loved to dance, and she danced well. It was always delightful to see her when she returned home to visit. She had become a savvy woman with wisdom that only time and experience could teach her. To the family we extend our deepest sympathies. Rest in peace, Ginny.
