Not sure what to say?

Dad. Not a single day has gone by in my 48 years that you weren't in my thoughts at some point or another and each with their own personal emotion. In this past year those emotions have been mostly grief and longing. There have been some happy emotions and even laughter when speaking of or remembering you. Tears once again stream from my leaking eyes,making it difficult to type my thoughts yet somehow I know you already heard what I've yet to say. I have withdrawn from those around me that I...

With great sadness, we have just learn of the passing of Gene Still. Our son, Reed, graduated with Spencer from Edison High School. Shortly after graduation, Gene sent Reed several books on dinosaurs, as Reed is studying to become a paleontologist.

We miss you so.

Thank You to all for your thoughts and prayers over the loss of a good man. I'm sure he appreciates every one offered as much as his family does. The world lost a big smile that day. One that let out a loud and hearty laugh. Let's remember him every time we laugh, which should be often, as we remember a joke or two. You know the ones. The ones that really got you going. There were many.

I miss you Dad. I miss you a lot. I miss: Your laugh. Your smile. Your hugs. You.

Susan and Spencer...there are no words to express my sincere condolences. Just know that you are always in my heart.

My sincere sympathies to the Still family. Gene was a wonderful man and a pleasure to have known over the years. I had the pleasure of getting to know Gene during his involvement with LYF. He was a loving, dedicated family man who will be missed.

Gene was a great guy. So sorry to hear of his passing.

So sorry about Gene, Sue. I've thought of the two of you many times over the years (and depended on Archer for updates). Love to all. Rebecca
