i just recently found out of his passing from an old co workers of ours, i use to work with Mr. Adams at National Car Rental. he was a good man and always had me laughing and we had a battle once or twice but that was on me for being a young buck who didnt know much and wasn't trying to listen but i can always count on him to listen to me and make me laugh.
he is miss and my prayers are with his family.

I would like to extend my heart, as well as prayers to Fannie and her family, which I've known Fannie basically all of my life where I was reared in DC. May God comfort, and keep you, as well as your family in perfect peace, because he will never leave, or forsake you. Gene's love, and spirit will dwell with you forever. Just remember, he is at peace now with God. When all family is gone, and you are left all alone, just look to the hills from whence your help cometh, because it comes from the Lord. Will call you soon.
Respectfully,
Annie Jacobs Allen

Ma Fannie:
Daddy Gene will surely be missed. I will miss the laughs that he and I had about me wearing dresess as I grew up. He used to always tell me how he thought little girls look so cute in dresses. I will miss our family cookouts, parties, picnics, cabarets, etc. Know that he is not alone, because momma and daddy are with him. But, most importantly he is with our Lord and Savior Jesus the Christ where he will suffer no more. Know that if there is anything that I can do, do not hesitate to call on me. My home number is (301) 420-3195. I love you all - we are more than just friends; "we are family."
