Sending love and light to Gene's family and friends during this difficult time. May you find peace within fond memories and knowing that even though his physical presence has passed, his spirit lives on in the hearts of those who knew him.
With love,
Carla Anderson & husband Leif Jensen [Carla is daughter of Dave & Roberta (Muellner) Anderson, and granddaughter of Richard & Marcella (Kraus) Muellner].

Dad,
I wish there were words I could write that could accurately express what you've meant to me over the years. The best I can do is...I love you so much Dad. Your loving son, Michael
