I am very sad over the passing of Gene. He was my favorite residents and will be truly missed. I always enjoyed coming to work and seeing his smile, hearing him sing and telling me that he likes me. To Jan, Paul and Pete.. I just want to all to know that I am here for you all. A piece of my heart is gone and you all will always be family to me. I will continue praying for the family and know that God is with you always.. Eugene will always be in my heart. Eugene can know sing "When the Saints go marching in" because he is definitely where he is supposed to be!! I love you all and keep the faith. I'm just a phone call away

Brother Paul I only met Gene a couple of days before the Lord came to claim him but I saw the goodness in his face and in the legacy he left behind. You and your family are truly the epitome of goodness. You are blessed to have such a good father. Patricia and I are privileged to call you our friend. Thank you for letting us share in Gene's journey to heaven. God Bless.
