Gen told her mother at the end of her life that there is a deathless part of her that will continue and a subtle connection, so she doesn't need to worry, and encouraged her to keep focused on all the good things she's done and the people she's loved, offering reassurance without requiring her mother to change her beliefs.

Evidence Quote

I said, Well, I can just tell you that there's a part of you, Mom, that'll continue. And that there's always a very subtle connection...Just keep focused on all the good things that you've done, the people that you've loved.
