Gene came in our shop for his haircuts.. Whether it was myself or someone else cutting his hair, Gene and I always had belly laughs together. And oh what a laugh he had.
In the forty one years we knew one another (from the Haircut Place), Gene was always kind, considerate, a good talker (laugher) and so much fun.
He will be missed.
With fond memories,
Jeanne Tomaselli

Gene was in the Marines with my Brother Joe Breitweiser. He married a girl from the Old Neighborhood and raised his family. He lived around the corner from my In Laws house on Deerrun Rd Phila Pa. I remember him driving by every day. He enjoyed his life and his family loved him. He was proud of his family and gave them a great example for life. May he rest in peace.

There aren't words to describe Shadow. Always giving ,caring ,loving ,Selfless in every way. My memories of him are from the Grand hotel in Capemay. He was part of the hockey group. We all met every October and knew it would be a great time. Esp since Shadow was there. Always made sure the hospitality room filled with snacks, and drink. He was always my church buddy, down the shore . He is loved by me and many and will be greatly missed . Shad I hope to see you in heaven one day. Karen

To all our cousins in Philly,

Jay and I were very sad to learn of Gene's passing. We look back with fond memories of our family gatherings at the lake house. We especially remember Gene's laughter and of course all the Tasty Cake treats he would bring. Our thoughts and prayers are with you all.
