    I worked with Gene at the old convention center. We talked at the desk when I was stationed there about families. He enjoyed life. His Marriage. He was always so proud of his family. He talked about how his kids accomplishments. Then the Grandkids were the next on the list. Gene, Thanks for your service. You are a part of the greatest generation. You were a wonderful man and a gentleman. RIP. Thank you for sharing your life, your families life, and the world you accomplished so much in.
