To the family of Gene,

I remember Gene when he use to come and clean the rest rooms where I worked. He was a very nice man, always had a good story to tell about the many trips he took or magic stories.

Very sorry to hear of Gene's passing. He is my first cousin and frequently saw him when we were younger. I liked him and enjoyed his magic.
