Ann,
We deeply greave at Gene’s passing. He was always so supportive and complimentary to Jim in our Bible classes at Washington Street. You were both always so mature and kind in your conduct.

We will be unable to attend his services since we are out of town on travel. A memorial contribution in his honor will be made to the Children’s home.
