Gene was a wonderful person and it was a privelege to know and work with him at Delta. He will be missed.
God Bless you and your family

It is not normal to have to lose someone to death after you've come to love and cherish them. That is why God promises to swollow up death forever. He also promises thar our dead loved ones will live again.(Isaiah 25:8&26:19. My sympthy goes out to your family in this time of sorrow.

Judging by these earlier entries, it is evident that Gene was as wonderful to work with and for as he was to have as a neighbor. Elizabeth, Holly and Michael, you know how much we love all of you and how much we too will miss Gene. We have always said for 22 years that we could not possibly have been given better neighbors and friends. You know we are here for you and will help in any way we can.

Elizabeth, Holly and Michael, I met the three of you only briefly at the Relay for Life but I felt I'd known you longer because to know Gene was to know Elizabeth, Holly and Michael too. I'll never forget that laugh of Gene's that could be heard throughtout the entire 4th floor at Delta. I am deeply sorry for your loss and you are all in my prayers.

It has been an honor and priviledge to know and work with Gene. I was priviledged to meet his wife and family at the Relay and my heart and prayers go out to you guys. His smile and his laughter are so heartwarming and will never be forgotten. Lots of love!

Elizabeth, We are thinking about you and your family at this time. We will keep you in our prayers.

I had the honor and privilege to know, work with, and work for Gene for 21 years! When you met Gene, you met Elizabeth, Holly, and Michael as well! He was the ultimate family man! Gene loved his family and you knew it! His family became my family and my family became his family! I watched his kids grow up as he did mine and shared in life events. He has wonderful wife and two wonderful children. He has a tremendous legacy in them! He also loved his co-workers and those that worked for...
