Born in Tooele, Utah on July 2, 1951, Gene was a smart, handsome boy full of life and charm. He was raised by good parents who taught him the value of hard work and the meaning of family. He met Kathleen Ann Hunter at Mitchell High School in Colorado Springs, and the two would later marry and start a family of their own. As a young man Gene served the country that he loved by joining the United States Marine Corps. The Corps taught him discipline, which would pay off in all his future endeavors. As a father, Gene taught his children through his example of compassion, hard work, generosity and love. His talent and his love of music were a prominent part of every family gathering, and they live on in his posterity. When his children were young, Gene worked tirelessly to provide for his family, and continued to do so after they had grown. There was always a home for his children to return to, no matter their circumstance. At the time of his passing Gene and Kathy were happier and more in love than they had ever been. He will be sorely missed by those whom he has left behind, but the pain is eased somewhat by the knowledge that families are forever and that his kids will hug their daddy again, his grandkids will get their pony rides, and his sweetheart Kathy will have her husband again, in time.
