MaryAnne and Denise, I am so sorry to hear about your loss. He was always kind to me and truly loved his family. I am glad to hear that he enjoyed his golden years in the CA sunshine!

Geno was a great guy. So many good memories from being at the house with his son Scott or visiting the racetrack with my friends when he was always the man in charge behind the bar with a welcoming smile and a hearty laugh. My prayers are with Mary Anne and Denise.

Denise, I spoke with your Mom yesterday, but missed telling you how sorry I am about your Dad´s passing. For sure you will miss him...but we know he´s with the Lord in a much, much better place. I look forward to seeing your smiles and exuberance when you are here in the Spring ! Cousin (I think) Leon....& family.

Our deepest sympathy to Mary Anne and Denise. May Gene rest in eternal peace. Thinking of you all.

My thoughts and prayers are with you - Mary Ann and Denise. As you know I’ve known Geno for over 35 years, and like it was yesterday, I can still him yell Scott’s name from the kitchen window when we played basketball in your back yard. I’ll miss talking Cleveland sports and especially Cavs basketball with him. Although these times are tough I know he’s now enjoying his next chapter in the comfort of the Lord - where there is no pain or suffering. I will continue to pray for the Lord to give...
