I only knew Gene for a few of his later years via our memberships at the Central Branch YMCA. It was always a highlight of the day to see Gene come in and share a story or two. I had the privilege of doing a few yard and household chores for him and respected his mutual caring for his pets, horticulture and wants for good organization.
He always had a great outlook that would bring joy and happiness with every meet. He's been missed and will never be forgotten.
My condolences to all who knew and loved him. RIP my friend.

Dear Wilkinson family,
Ann has shared many stories of her father and I feel like I have known the man. I know it is very hard to loose someone so close and loving. Know that you are in my thoughts and Prayers. If there is anything I can do please let me know. God Bless each and everyone of you.

To the family, I worked at Dana and really enoyed Gene. He had such a funny sense of humor and a very nice person. Sorry for your loss.
