Gene you were a wonderful brother and friend! Your heart for others was very strong and your love for your family was wonderful! You told me that you were so blessed and honored by what God had given you. Time will pass quickly and one day I will see you again! The Lord was your Strength and Reedemer and Savior and you served him faithfully! Will miss you so enjoy peace and rest until the Lord comes back and then we will rejoice together!
