Loved Gene. Always welcomed me into her home with loving heart. May she rest in peace
Gene was more than a sister-in-law to me. She was my friend she knew how to listen and always gave great advice. Gene had a great sense of humor and loved to give funny gifts at Christmas time that made you laugh, like a roll of toilet paper printed with rolls of dollar bills. Rest in peace dear Gene. I love you.

Gene was my sister-in-law, but she was also my dear friend. She was always there for me to talk to. She would listen and give me loving and wise advice. I will miss our talks and her presence at our family gatherings at the holidays. Gene loved to laugh and had the best imagination for fun gift giving, including a roll of toilet paper printed like dollar bills. You will be dearly missed sweet Gene. See you again one day when the Lord calls me home.
