All, I am so sorry to hear that Gene Sr. passed. He was like another dad for me as I was growing up in high school. He was very kind and very thoughtful and would do whatever you needed if asked. The world will be a little less bright with him gone but atleast everyone will have his memories with them.
To the Eberhardt Family - very sorry to hear of your loss. I know he was a good father and I am sure you guys will miss him. We will continue to pray for you all and him.

To my dearest family, some things I'd like to say...
but first of all, to let you know, that I arrived okay.
I'm writing this from heaven. Here I dwell with God above.
Here, there's no more tears of sadness; here is just eternal love.
Please do not be unhappy just because I'm out of sight.
Remember that I'm with you every morning, noon and night.
That day I had to leave you when my life on earth was through,
God picked me up and hugged me and He said, "I welcome you."
It's good to have you back again; you were missed while you were gone.
As for your dearest family, they'll be here later on.
I need you here badly; you're part of my plan.
There's so much that we have to do, to help our mortal man."
God gave me a list of things, that he wished for me to do.
And foremost on the list, was to watch and care for you.
And when you lie in bed at night, the day's chores put to flight.
God and I are closest to you....in the middle of the night.
When you think of my life on earth, and all those loving years
because you are only human, they are bound to bring you tears.
But do not be afraid to cry; it does relieve the pain.
Remember there would be no flowers, unless there was some rain.
I wish that I could tell you all that God has planned.
But if I were to tell you, you wouldn't understand.
But one thing is for certain, though my life on earth is o'er.
I'm closer to you now, than I ever was before.
There are many rocky roads ahead of you and many hills to climb;
but together we can do it by taking one day at a time.
It was always my philosophy and I'd like it for you too...
that as you give unto the world, the world will give to you.
If you can help somebody who's in sorrow and pain,
then you can say to God at night......"My day was not in vain."
And now I am contented....that my life has been worthwhile,
knowing as I passed along the way, I made somebody smile.
So if you meet somebody who is sad and feeling low,
just lend a hand to pick him up, as on your way you go.
When you're walking down the street, and you've got me on your mind;
I'm walking in your footsteps only half a step behind.
And when it's time for you to go.... from that body to be free,
remember you're not going.....you're coming here to me.

Dear Family, I just want to tell you what an encouragement Gene was to me - he always had a smile for you - his positive outlook and love for his family reminded me often to wear a smile myself and to treat others with kindness and a cheerful attitude. I enjoyed working with him and will miss him very much - as a co-worker and a friend. I was reminded by Paulette (co-worker) that the smell of popcorn will always be a reminder of Gene's afternoon snack! I pray that God will draw you closer to Himself thru your grief.
