Eugene Albert Ravizza

They don't make men like Gene Ravizza anymore. His integrity, kindness, humility, generosity and compassion were legendary. All his kids share the same high moral standards of Gene and Dianne. The world is a better place because of this family.

I think Gene had the most integrity of any man I have ever met. The respect for him runs wide and far. An amazing humble man, always putting others first. Im sure he is happy in heaven, with his lovely wife Dianne and sharing funny stories for eternity. The world was left a much better place because of this one gracious gracious man, who instilled the same kindness, generosity, humility and high morals to all of his children. Hod Bless You Always Gene Ravizza. Well done good and faithful...

I found out this day in St. George, UT of Gene's passing. I am crushed.

My sincerest condolences to all of the family.
He was a beautiful, wonderful friend, and I shall miss him greatly. My husband, Jack, always considered Gene his very best friend.

I send my love.

My heart goes out to all of you at this difficult time. Both Gene and Diane were great friends to my mom and dad from as early as I can remember . I remember the bridge games and dinner parties. I loved seeing them all laugh together and how much they enjoyed coming over here to the beach. I would love seeing Gene strolling the beaches in Aptos. Diane was always the best of friend to my mom. I am sending prayers and love to you all especially Claranne Mark and Greg.

My remembrances of Gene from the early 1950's

I remember admiring his new 1955? Oldsmobile parked in the driveway off of Wolfe Road.

I remember visiting his first business office (CEI?) along with his brother Armand near the intersection of Stevens Creek and Highway 9.

Gene was a community leader and dear friend to my mother Norma Ann (Doane) Mitchell. It was my mother who introduced Gene to Diane, and mom remained friends with them both for many many years to come. I can speak for all the Mitchell children when I say that both Gene and Diane had a profound impact on our family. They were both the pillars of integrity, kindness, generosity and being true Christians in all they do. Their friendship to my mother throughout the years sustained her in tough...

I knew Gene from a business relationship and it is so very rare to find a business owner that had the integrity and sense of fairness that Gene had. This was well known throughout our organization where he was so well-respected. My sincere condolences to his family.
