Teresa, during the years of Gene & Gabe's activity we regretably missed the fun there being tied down with small kids for most of it. It was a cool place.

Gene is one of the giants and loving man, many wonderful memories with he & Teresa and the Gene & Gabe group of fabulous people.
Blessings to Teresa and the girls.

HE WILL BE MISSED - ALWAYS A GREAT TIME UPSTAIRS! Blessings & prayers to the family.
