Uncle Gene, you were an amazing man. I remember the last time I talked to you was when we were standing outside poppy's funeral. I wandered outside because I was so devastated but you helped cheer me up. I just wish I could've hugged you and kissed you and spoken to you one last time. I love you and I know you'll have the best seat in Heaven next to poppy and grandma Cush. You will be in my heart forever. May you rest in paradise for the rest of eternity. we all love you dearly.
