Gene was a long time friend and co-worker. He took great care of his family and business all the years I knew him. I know his family was always proud of him. He has earned his rest.

I have had the great pleasure of knowing Gene and Linda and my heart breaks for the family. Gene was a sweet and happy person with a sweet spirit and a blessing to be around. My prayers go out to Linda and the family at this time of great loss and sorrow. He will be greatly missed by myself and Gary.
