Gene Storrs, 79, of Amarillo, TX died Sunday, April 27, 2025.

Memorial services will be at 4:00 p.m., Friday, May 2, 2025, at Boxwell Brothers Ivy Chapel, 2800 Paramount Blvd. with Chris Condit officiating.

Gene was born September 11, 1945, in Amarillo, TX to Bant and Roxie Storrs. He grew up in Amarillo and graduated from Palo Duro High School, later attending West Texas State University earning a Bachelor’s Degree in Marketing, before completing his Doctorate Juris Doctor degree from the University of Texas. Gene dedicated more than 50 years to practicing criminal law in Amarillo, where he was known for his commitment to helping others in the community.

Gene loved fishing with his grandsons, hitting the golf course with his son, brother, and friends, and swapping stories with just about anyone he met. He always had a huge smile on his face. His passion for animals was seen through his love of his three beloved bulldogs that he treated like family.

Survivors include his son, Lincoln Storrs and wife Laura, of Amarillo, TX; good friend, Mary Storrs, of Amarillo, TX; two brothers, Don Storrs and wife Judy, and Wayne Storrs and wife Karla, all of Amarillo, TX; and two grandchildren, Triston and Jake. Gene was preceded in death by both his parents.

In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to your local animal shelter, a cause close to Gene’s heart.

He will be deeply missed by his family, as well as the many friends and countless lives he touched along the way.
