Not sure what to say?

Rest well "Eug". Couldn't reach you so thought I would try here. We went thru a lot together at New England Printing and I was so blessed that we kept in touch. Still remember you getting me to go to the blood bank with you during lunch and next thing I knew there was a needle in my arm. You just sat there grinning and laughing quietly. Well, I got to 10 gallons before I was no longer eligible. My best to Gene's family. JD

A fond memory of Gene, is from over 50 years ago, when I started working on his printing press! I was the house political radical, and...uhmmm ....Gene wasn't! We had many, always friendly discussions! Once, after All In The Family had become a TV hit, I asked him, if he ever thought it hit home? He did the " Gene Thing ". Looked down , cupped his hand to his mouth and laughed! Seems like yesterday.

Proud to work for him for nearly 20 years. A great honest man. Condolences to his family.
