I was an employee and friend of Gene's for years. He was the best boss ever, patient and forever teaching without making it feel like teaching.
It was always the highlight of my birthday to receive a phone call from him, and something for me to look forward to when I would call him for his. My heartfelt condolences to Nan, Geno, Danielle and Coley on the passing of a wonderful husband, Dad and Grand-dad. You are all in my thoughts and prayers.

I went to high school with Danielle and Gino's son, who was my best friend. I visited their home on multiole occasions. I always felt welcome. It saddens me to think of this beautiful family grieving so. I will never forget your father, husband, grandfather, friend. My heart aches for each of you. I am sending much love, healing energy and prayers your way. My deepest sympathies, Gretchen Snell Zelinsky

I had the pleasure of knowing Gene and working for him years ago, he was the funniest and best boss ever. I will miss dropping in to see him at the store. He always had a hug and a laugh. RIP Gene, you are going to be missed.
To Nan and the kids and all of those grands, you are in my thoughts and prayers. Hold onto all of your beautiful memories.
