Any words I could say about Gene would be so pale and inadequate because there's no way to describe what a wonderful person he really was. He truly was one of the best people I've ever been blessed to know and I'm so honored that he was my friend. He loved his family, he loved his life...and we all loved him. My sympathy and prayers to his entire family, as well as my gratitude. Because of you loving him so much and so well, you made him the wonderful man we all knew.

Ginger & family, I was shocked to hear of Gene's passing. I worked with him many years, starting with Blue Bell and then Pluma. With both of us living in Draper, we also knew each other through family and friends outside of work. He was a great friend - always making me laugh even on the worst of days. There was never a dull moment at work when he was around. He will be missed by many and it was an honor to have been a friend of his. You and your family are in my thoughts and prayers as you go through this tough time.
