Death hits home so very hard. I'm sorry to hear your loss. We will remember the many Canasta games when we lived in Crestwood Park. Gene was my great protecter in school. Though we didn't see one another often enough, my memories will be there. Bless you Diane for taking such good care of Gene.

Though I have been out of NY for a long time and failed at staying in contact. I thought of Gene a lot, and wondered how the family is doing. I will always have fond memories of him and send my prayers to the rest of the family.
