Gene, June and family,
Dennis called me late last night to tell me about the passing of your Dad. Please accept our deepest sympathy. I remember your Dad as always smiling, very easy going and deeply devoted to his family. I remember him telling me how he used to take Gene for a ride to get him to sleep. I also remember how he was always there for you as adults as well. He will surely be missed by all of you - but he will live on through all of you. May fond memories comfort you during this difficult time. I'm sorry I didn't know in time to extend my condolences in person. God Bless!
