My Husband and I worked with Gene at Fannie Mae for about 20 years. Gene was a noble man with a kind spirit. He was thoughtful and set the standard for excellence in execution. We thrived under his guidance and instruction. He made a difference in the lives of many. Rest well Gene. We will see you when the LORD unites us all again!
