We met Gene and Jean when we moved to the Gables and we were so sad to hear that Gene has passed on. Loved watching the tribute video and enjoyed seeing all the memories you have shared as a couple and as a family. Those memories can never be taken away from you. Prayers are with you all in this difficult time.
Very sorry to hear this. I have a few memories that will live on. Rest in Peace, Gene.
So very sorry for your loss. It was a pleasure and a privilege to know Gene. There are so many great memories! He will truly be missed.
Love and prayers
Hal and Joan
As soon as Gene and Jean moved into The Gables we became friends. Our trip the Ireland was great and memorable. We will miss him very much.
We are so very sorry to hear of your family’s loss. I had the pleasure of working with Jean at AGH for many years. And later I finally met Gene of “Jean and Gene” fame! May he rest in peace. Praying for your family at this difficult time.
Jean and family,
I’m very sorry to hear this. We enjoyed your visits to Fort Myers. Our thoughts and prayers are with you all.
