In search of my late maternal grandmothers biological family, I discovered I was related to Gene as a half first cousin 3x removed. I believe Gene and my late grandmother, Joyce, were first cousins through her biological father in the Koeneman and Onken family line. After reading all of the wonderful things people are saying about Gene, I think he and my grandmother would have been great friends. I'm sad I didn't know Gene, but feel fortunate to have been related to someone so dearly loved by...

Gene was my #1 cousin and his dad was my Godfather. Gene got me interested in being a police officer He was the perfect example of an officer with integrity, kindness and compassion. I’m also retired from law enforcement, but, the torch has been passed to my son.
R.I.P, Gene! You set the bar for us all.
