My memories of Gene will always remain with me.
He was my uncle and I spent many summers during my childhood with him and my grandparents on the farm. He was a good man and loved his family dearly.
My prayers are with all of them.

I have lots of memories of Gene and about Gene. He was my godfather.
I had never ever seen him without a big smile. He always made me laugh. Gene was precious.

So sorry to hear of Uncle Gene's passing - we were hoping he'd live to 100. He had a wonderful fun sense of humor, which will be sadly missed. So glad we got to visit with him last summer. Prayers and condolence to the family.
