Dear Gene, Pat and family... I am so sorry to read of the passing of Gene's father. Having met him on several occasions as the result of you, your children and grandchildren, I'm glad to have had the opportunity of knowning him and the history of this side of the family. May God be with all of you at this time and may you have peace in your hearts knowing that he no longer suffers. I love you. Coralee
