  1. So sorry for your loss. Gene was a great Christian man and served the Lord with all his heart. Chester will meet him just inside the Eastern Gate. Until then my prayers are with Mina, and family.

  3. Although it has been years. I always remember talking to Gene about his years growing up in Southern Missouri, gardening and the pecan tree in their back yard.
