He was the best professor. My first course at Umass Boston in Spring 1995 was with Mr. Genes. It was Historical Geology. He was a funny, kind and a very friendly man. I will never forget Mr. Andrew Genes. May his soul rest in peace.

Nick and Vic met back when they were doctoral students in geology at Syracuse University. Vic recalls that Nick's academic excellence was obvious immediately, but just as striking were his exuberant spirit and great sense of humor. They became great friends and remained that way throughout the years.

We feel fortunate to have had this amazing and delightful man in our lives, and we send our deepest sympathies to his dear wife Anne and to all the family and friends mourning his loss. May you find comfort in many, many happy memories.
