Dear Joy and Family
Please accept my condolences. I worked in the same building with Gene in Fayetteville many years ago. I am originally from Tarboro. He was certainly a straight shooter - a very nice person with a great personality. You will be in my prayers.

Dear Rhonda and family:
It saddens me for the loss of Gene, as he has been a great neighbor and friend - a really good man. I felt secure in knowing that he was there to "help take care of me," if I needed him. But, I know that he is in a better place and feeling no pain now.
Let me know if there is anything that I can do for you or the family or Joy.

Dear Connie and family: Although I am not there in body, I am there in spirit. I'm so very sorry for the loss of your dad. He lived a long time and had a good life. I hope to see you soon. God Bless!
