My Dear Friend Judy, I just read today that Gene died. I´m so sorry for your loss. He was a wonderful friend to Bob and I. I´m going to try to get in touch with you so we can talk. I love you my Friend, Kay Rylee 901-481-1561

To Judith & family. Gene was always encouraging when I saw them at the Berkshire shareholder meeting. God bless you.

I am deeply saddened about the loss of a wonderful human being. Gene approached me upon my arrival in St. Louis and invited me to become a commissioner of the St. Louis Science Center. He was instrumental in helping me become a part of the Science Center community. I got to know him as an incredible leader and partner. As someone who deeply cared about advancing science and advocating for the people and community of St. Louis. I will forever be grateful for everything I learned from Gene....

Our condolences to Judy, Gene IV and the rest of the family on your loss. Gene was a great leader and a business visionary, but most of all he was a gracious and caring friend who made everyone around him better. We were lucky to have known Gene and he influenced our lives immensely. He will leave a legacy that will for sure endure in many of us. May God give you peace and eternal rest. Maged and Yara Diab

I was sadden and shocked to learn of Gene's passing this week. He was a regular in our foursome for a number of years at the Legends, Persimmons and Meadowbrook. We played several times a week, and I also looked forward to gaining some wisdom from Gene every week. He was a great friend. To Judy and all the Toombs family I want to express my sincere sympathy for your loss.
