My sympathies to Lisa and Noah, and Mrs. Schultz, Dave, Kelly, Bobby, and rest of family. I'm so sorry for your loss. Geney was a great guy. Always a smile, laugh, and joke no matter how long it had been since seeing him last. An upbeat, happy guy no matter what. Great teenage high school memories, he was a real blast to hang out with, everyone liked Gene. Way too young for this to happen. Rest in peace, Gene, we'll see you on the other side someday. Regards to entire family.
