Gene will be dearly missed. It was a blessing to know her. I will miss her at Fort Johnson where she so often graced us with her weaving skills and stories.
God Bless

Friend of many years, fellow spinner, knitter,lover of books & research, I will sorely miss Gene.
Now she will be a master weaver of finer things. I will always see her spirit at Ft Knock. She will be busy organizing and sharing her joy in her new life.
She truly celebrated life and will inspire me to do likewise.
Love and joy for her life, Teresa :-

Gene, Thanks for the memories - my baby scrapbook, the excitement of weaving long before I could reach the peddles, shoveling coal for the furnace, rides in the wheelbarrow, visits to your apt. in Troy - and of course for reading x100 at least "How Michael Missed the Train". And, after I moved away, for caring enough to stay in touch and always making me feel special! Love but no hugs!, Nancy

And thanks to Pat and Sonny for all you did for Gene- our love janet

I have known Gene all of my life and have so many fond memories of her and all of our fun times together. I will carry these memories with me for the rest of my life. She was a great teacher, a great historian, a great weaver, a great friend. I will miss my trips to Gloversville and all of our "covered bridge hunting" trips to Vermont so long ago. What a great loss for so many people, but most of all I think for Pat, Sonny and Liebchen. I will miss you Gene! Love, Biddy

I remember Ms. Valk as being very helpful in the library at school when we had any type of research to do. She always had time for the students.
My condolences to her family and friends.

Gene- Sonny, Myself, Chloe and Liebchen miss you so much. You will be in our heart and minds forever. We certainly had a true friendship myself for 73 years and Sonny for 53 years . You were a very special lady and not having you next door to us anymore is very difficult but we will have our memories for as long as we live and will be with you again when we meet in the Lord's house. Love you forever

I was sadden to read that Ms. Valk had passed away. She touched many lives not only as a librarian, or a talented and gifted loomer, but as a special and kind person. She will be missed by many.
My thoughts and prayers are with her family.

I want to send my condolences to Miss Valk's family. I have fond memories of going to Miss Valk's house with my Mother Leona Miller when I was a child and Miss Valk showing me how her looms worked. I also remembered her dog Gretchen.
Rest in Peace Miss Valk,

My sincere condolences to the Valk Family. Although I only knew Gene in her later years last 10 or so, I greatly admired her for her vast weaving knowledge and keeping to her convictions. Too bad there are not more people who will stand up vocally for what they believe. Cheers to Gene! You are loved by many and will be greatly missed.

My Condolences to the family of Gene Valk. I was a student at Gloversville High School, graduated in 1975. Miss Valk gave me guidance and a warm hug when I was down. I watched her do her weaving and many fairs and history events.
Miss Valk was a great loving woman and will be missed. God Be With You Miss Valk.

I was in the class of 1963 - she paid my dues so I could get my library letter. Of course she did it quietly and without my knowing until I left no choice but for her to tell me. I have tried to follow her example through my life and pay back when possible without people knowing where it came from. She is a very special spirit and I am sure will help guide you through your lives. I will never forget her as I am sure I am not alone. God be with you.

She was a neighbor also-I still have many of the Christmas ornaments that she used to send usmade out of a top of a can-she also wove somethingI can't remember what-that was 31 years ago when our 1st child was born.She was a feisty lady who meant what she said-I admired her for that.Our condolences
