The first time we met Gene was at Dillard's Music park and they parked beside us . He would draw a crowd outside singing almost all night long . What beautiful gospel songs he would sing and never repeat one . I believe he knew every Gospel song that was written . We enjoyed and loved him so much . He was such a joy to be around . He will be missed by so many . Prayers to the Family . I'm sure he's got a crowd around him up there now singing his heart out .
God Bless,

People would come from all over to see our lights. Summer time was great also, you would
Let me get dirty and plant flowers and help plant vegitables in your garden. I ran around bare foot and muddy and loved ever second of it. You have me my love for animals by always talking about birds and other beautiful creatures in nature. You always made me slow down take a second and look at the roses. When this world takes you in the fast lane you gave me the gift to slow down and smell the roses. Papa I love you! I'll see you again. Give everyone a hug for me. Expecially papa J!
