Gene passed away peacefully at 12:35 this morning.

Funeral services are planned for Thursday morning at 11:00 at the First Cumberland Presbyterian Church here in Chattanooga. There will be a visitation at the Chattanooga East Funeral Home, 404 South Moore Road, East Ridge, TN 37412 (423) 698-2541 on Wednesday evening from 5pm til 8pm. There will also be a visitation before the funeral service on Thursday morning at First Cumberland Presbyterian Church, 1505 N. Moore Road, Chattanooga, TN 37411 beginning at 9:30 AM.


In going through Gene's recent notepads, we found a poem in progress:

To my friends and loved ones left on earth
I bid a fond farewell
God in his infinite wisdom
Has called this soldier home.

The Gates of Heaven were open wide
No enemy, the scout reports
The welcome came from the almighty
Well Done, Good and Faithful Servant.
