Gene had a talent for teaching and leadership. I am pleased to have worked with him. My best wishes to your family.

Gene will be greatly missed. I had the opportunity to work with him at City Utilities. I thought he was a fine man and he was always very pleasant to be around. I admired him for standing up for what he thought and believed in. My sincere sympathy goes out to his family and friends.

Our sincerest condolences.
