Shirley and Family-
I am very sorry to hear of your loss. Gene was such a fun man! I always remember him stopping over at my Grandma and Grandpa's house to chat. What I remember most is he was always wearing that big smile of his and had a great laugh. Thank you to the both of you for being wonderful neighbors and friends to my grandparents, Walt and Lorraine Raschke and our family over the years. May God bless you in this difficult time.

Shirley & family - My deepest sympathy to you all in the loss of your husband, father, grandfather, and my brother. My fondest memories of Gene come from our Sunday get togethers. They were filled with music, and Gene was able to show his amazing musical talent. He could play guitar just like Chet Atkins. I never heard anyone else play like that. Shirley, thank you for taking such good care of him as his health began to decline. He really appreciated all you did for him. You were really a blessing in his life.

I will miss you Gene. Rest in peace . . .

Your sister
