2013-08-02 Gena Mason 29 November 1972 - 28 June 2013

Gena Virginia Mason passed away 28 June 2013 in Basildon England. Gena was one of WL Central's most prolific writers and arguably one of the very best on the web. Her work has long since been acknowledged for its oftentimes sheer brilliance.

Staff at WLC share in the sorrow of her passing.

Gena's writing had an intentional cadence brought on by her musical background, always structuring rhythm and metre in her prose. Her due diligence in researching her subjects was unparalleled. Reading her writing was sheer joy, the way reading is supposed to be.

Gena was an impeccable team worker at WLC, always inspiring by good example.

Gena is survived by her parents; by her grandmother Franceda; by her brothers Harold and Eugene; by her nieces Tonica, Teena, and Liliana; by her nephew Harold; and by her myriad admirers and friends, not the least of which are at this site.

Services were held at Crown Hill Funeral Home in Indiana on 20 July.

It's impossible to praise Gena too highly. She was much loved by those who knew her personally and admired by those who partook of her talents.

Gena's masterpiece for WLC is here. Pay special attention to 'A Generation's Manifesto'.
