I am sorry to hear of the loss of Gene. I worked with him for several years in the 1980s and he was one of the finest people I have known.

I am very sorry to hear that we've all lost such a fine person. Gene was one of the really good guys in this world.

I was sad to hear of Gene's passing. I thank God for every remembrance of my Whitehaven High school football teammate. He was a tough blocking back. Our fellow teammate and friend Sam Guthrie passed away about 3 weeks before Gene. We have lost 2 of our stalwarts. May the God of all comfort be with you during this time. Thanks be to God who gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ. 1 Cor. 15:57.

Our deepest sympathy.

I was so devastated to hear the news about Gene. He has to be the kindest person I know. He definitely was one of a kind. I worked with him for many years at SRX and ate lunch with him quite often. He was an awesome cook!He will be GREATLY missed by all.

Gene and Carlita and family, I am so sorry for the loss of your father and father in law and pappy. He will be missed. My thougths and prayers are with you all. Love you , Shelly Greene

I worked with Gene at SRX/Teltronics for a lot of years. I wish I could have worked many more years with him. He was my favorite person to work with in Field Service. He was a valued employee and co-worker. He cared a lot about the customers that he supported and we worked hand in hand on many occations to solve the customer's problems. I have never worked with a man more dependable than Gene. He loved his family and spoke of them all the time. My prayers and thoughts are with your family.
