Sorry to hear of this. Knew Gene since grammar school in the Bronx, E. 198 St and Valentine Ave and went to HS with him. Always known as "Spud". RIP Spud.

Gene was a great guy, always pleasure to be around. He would stop in to STA 3 say hi and stay for a meal if time permitted. He will be missed by all that knew him. Condolences to his family.

RIP
