Gene was a good shipmate and our best friend. He loved our reunions and was always so excited about attending and spending time with his shipmates. He and Wanda helped us with all our reunions. We traveled together to the reunions. When I got sick with Pneumonia in New Orleans, he and Wanda followed us all the way home to make sure I did okay traveling back home. We will never forget that. I talked with him at twice every week throughout the year. He will be terribly missed at our reunions and everyday for us. We love you Wanda, Wade, and family and we are here for you always.
