A Plymouth resident since 1983, coming from Battle Creek, Mich., Gen, known as a sweet, kind-hearted person, will be missed by her many friends. She loved her church, her children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren very much and served them well. Born in Mulkeytown, Ill., on Sept. 11, 1913, Gen was the daughter of Louie E. and Flora Agnes Overturf Lewis. She graduated from Sesser High School and earned a teacher’s certificate from University of Southern Illinois. On December 29, 1934, in Christopher, Ill., Gen and Kenneth D. Bacon were married. Kenneth, her beloved husband of almost 65 years, died on December 17, 1999. Gen worked with her husband for many years in motel management both in Mt. Vernon, Ill., and then in Battle Creek, Michigan’s Holiday Inn. A collector of Desert Rose dishes, she loved to cook and entertain her family and friends. She enjoyed duplicate bridge and played with the Plymouth Club for many years and with the Delts-Bridgarama fund-raisers. Gen, a dedicated Christian, was a Prayer Partner, a member of the Christian Women’s Club and the Seniors Group all with the Plymouth Wesleyan Church. In the Christopher Illinois Eastern Star Chapter, she served as Past Matron. Gen is survived by her son and daughter-in-law, David L. and Charlayne M. Bacon and by her grandson David M. and Kathy A. Bacon and their son, David Michael. A granddaughter, Kimberly D. and Phillip A. Scott and their children: Myles D., Mitchell P. and Meghan M. Scott, all of Plymouth.
