Arthur Eugene "Gene" Limehouse Sr.

I’m so saddened to hear of the passing of Gene Limehouse. He was my first principal when I had my first teaching position out of college at Alston Middle School in Summerville. Then I moved to Rollings Elementary with him and I taught 5th and 6th grades for 7 years.
He was always so pleasant with a great sense of humor. As someone fresh out of college and a rookie to the teaching profession, I couldn’t have asked for a finer mentor. My deepest sympathy to his family.

Remember Coach Limehouse fondly! Great Coach and Teacher. Although only an 8th Grader at the time, went to all the football games in 1962. Garrett went to the State championship at Easley that year! Good games, Great Coach. Also had Coach as a Math Teacher.

Coach Limehouse was my math teacher at Garrett High in the Sixties. What a wonderful person and teacher he was. Math was my least favorite subject, but he made it bearable. Thank you Coach Limehouse for being there for me, and I'm sure, countless others. Joyce Maye Sarran

Coach Limehouse was a teacher a coach and most of all a friend when you needed him most. I am privileged to have known him and to have worked closely with him on the football and track teams. I will miss him dearly. Class of 64.

ALL THE FAMILY ARE IN OUR THOUGHTS AND PRAYERS AT THIS TIME.

May you be comforted by loving memories. Though the ones we love may leave life as we know it, in our memory, the love we know will always carry on.
With our sympathy to you and your family. You're in our thoughts, now and in the days to come.
Nancylou, Kevin Dougherty & Family

Coach Limehouse coached me at Orangeburg High School during the 1954 season. He was a blessing to my life.

Big Gene was a wonderful man. He was a perfect example of a Southern gentleman. He was kind and caring yet tough as steel when need be. I, too, attended Garrett High School. I was fortunate to be chosen to serve as his last assistant principal at Rollings Elementary School. He taught me so many things from doing the perfect shag to what it means to lead quietly but surely. So many of the leadership lessons he taught me enable be to do what I do everyday. Many times I say "Big Gene always...

I had the great pleasure of knowing Coach Limehouse as both a teacher and coach at Garrett High School. He was always a gentleman and was respected by all. He was a great role model, and even as a teacher, he came across to us like a friend. RIP, coach - you had such a positive influence on so many students.
