Genesis Ford, infant

Genesis Serenity Unique Ford was born December 3, 2024 unto Daveon Ford and Jaonta Howell in New Albany, Mississippi. She was lovingly known as “GenGen”. Genesis Ford departed this life on March 1, 2025.



Genesis brought immense joy to our lives from the very first moment we heard her heart beating. She loved to smile and show off her dimples, and hold on tight with her little fingers. She enjoyed sitting back and smiling as she watched her big sister play with their dad. Although her time with us was brief, Genesis left an everlasting imprint on our hearts.

Lovingly remembered by her parents, Daveon Ford and Jaonta Howell; her sister, Avayah Ford; her grandparents, Jerry Holliday, Sr. and Angie Ford, Felix Howell and Krystal Howell; her aunties, Amari McShan, Chynesha Holliday, Shaleigha Lipsey; her uncles, Jerry Holliday, Jr., Maurico Ford, Deshawn Howell, Yahudah Holliday, AzariYah Holliday, Yechzkel Holliday; her great aunt, Mary Kimble; her cousins, Ja’maya Kimble, Ca’mari Kimble, Journee Kimble; and a multitude of other relatives and friends.

The family finds comfort knowing that Genesis is now in the arms of angels.
