Served with Gene in 1967 at the 18th Surgical Hospital (MASH) in Pleiku, Vietnam. Even under the most stressful conditions, Jean was always readily available to provide inspirational leadership. Unpretentious, authentic people, like Gene are a rarity. Pleased to have known Gene as both an inspirational leader and as my friend. Happy Trails To You Gene!
I'm Cindy Jalickee,
In 1965 I was in love with Gene and his friend Jack. I asked my mother, mom which one do you like best? She said " you won't like either one of them in 2 weeks " ! ! Well I still
love both of them now in 2022, I married Jack and still love him and Gene I have always
loved. They are both in Heaven now enjoying a good beer and a fine sail..
Gene was one of best people I have ever known. He was intelligent, witty and very aware of others.
The world has lost a treasure of incalculable value.
Dear Randy. Our sympathies and love to you. Gene was such a warm and gentle person.
Nick, Larry and Mark.
Randy, Gene will always share a place in our hearts. We had so many good times in your home, our home, restaurants and Kings Creek Country Club. We loved all his stories about how you met, his career, Polish tradition and relationships. Gene lived a wonderful life but his time since we met was so short. He always had such a welcoming hug and smile. Know Gene is dearly missed. 😇❤️:flag-us:
Joe & Bernie
