I am so sorry to learn of Gene´s death. While I haven´t seen Gene in years I went to school with him in our early years. He and his family were in our church so we were in Sunday School and other church activities for many years together.
I have loved away from Tupelo most of my adult life and until I read the obituary I wasn´t aware that he was still in the area much less that he had practiced law up there.
I remember him fondly as a good friend from way back!
Know that his fanily and friends are in my thoughts and prayers.
