Jenn and Angie; Since his passing I have tried to find words that would make the loss of your Dad easier. There are none! Since his passing I have tried to find words that would make the loss of a boss, co-worker, teacher, mentor and best friend easier and there are none. I’ve come to the realization that all we can do is cherish the memories. It was a privilege to have had him as a friend of our family. It was an honour to have worked with him and had him as a true and valued friend. Whether it was freezing our arses off hunting or singing The Gambler, strumming a five string guitar with only three strings or on patrol, he always had my back. Going to miss you Gene. Time to kick back, stick in a Willie Nelson tape and relax. Rest in Peace old friend.

To the Family"s, I was saddened to read of Gene's passing. We had worked in Sydney at the same time many years ago. He was a fun guy to work and socialize with, I always enjoyed our conversations and his sense of humor. In the recent past i'v thought about those days and what a good time we all had together. God Bless ya Gene, rest in peace man! (Mitch Soucie)

Jennifer, Angela and family, our deepest sympathy to all of you. I had the pleasure of working with Gene in Sydney GIS and Stellarton Detachment. We had many shared experiences and I always enjoyed Gene's humour and friendship with he and Rowlena. It was great seeing him again in Truro last fall.

When I arrived in Liverpool Detachment in 1967, as a 19 yr old recruit, I was blessed that Gene and Rowlena took me under their wings. They provided me a home away from home, and plenty of sage advice. I will be forever grateful.

Jennifer, Angela and family,
My deepest sympathies to all of you, your mom and dad were both special people in my life as were both of you. Your dad was a big influence on me and my career choice. We spoke a few months ago.
