Deepest sympathies to Gene's family and loved ones. Gene was as wonderful to be around in the 8th - 9th grade for me and my brother, Stan Ross. The two shared their love for football and having a great buddy in each other. As a girl, I could always count on Gene to be respectful to all--a real pal portraying all one person could be responsible for being. There will always be a warm spot in my heart for a wonderful guy!
A friend forever
