Not sure what to say?

Gene Voorhees continues to influence our lives.
There were many important facts that he accquainted me with that I still refer to in 2015.
The many choral performances we attended provide wonderful memories today.

While I did not get to see Gene often, it was alway a pleasure to be in his company. It saddens me to know that Gene will never call me again

Gene was a wonderful friend of the Boonstra Family, as well as Harry and myself. We will miss his great voice and guidance. Our hearts go out to all the family at this time.

I am the widow of Bob White (Robert S.), who died in 1987. He was in the law firm of Voorhees, Knable & Voorhees years ago and so enjoyed his chance to sing in the Temple choir with Gene. I was so sorry to hear of Gene's death and want to extend my condolences to Jean and the family.

I only regret that I had not you as a friend twenty years sooner.Gene, You join a few who I considered outstanding and my sympathy goes to your lovely family, we shall never forget you.

I will miss you, Uncle Gene. You told me I used to say "Honk horn, Unca Gene". Please honk the horn one more time.
Jean, Alise and Ann, I am thinking of you.

I will always remember Babop. It was an honor to have known him. He was like a grandpa to me too as Jason and I grew up together through high school and college. I'll always remember the Thanksgiving dinners we had and the great time we spent chit chatting. He will be missed. Love ya Babop.
