And everytim...I have known Gene for several years. And everytime we shared a private moment I would ask him why he didn't just hang it up and retire? I wanted to play in our older years...to fly fish, golf and ride. <BR/><BR/>Each time Gene just would say through his grizzled beard and always- always a smile, "I just love my job. I can't think of anything I could ever do that I would enjoy more..."<BR/><BR/>I knew Gene meant he loved using his talents as a pilot to do something more important than himself... to help others.<BR/><BR/>Gene died doing what he loved most - flying and helping others.<BR/>God's speed Gene. Hope to rejoin one of these days, good Lord willing.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27242057.post-1535869886879100292008-09-05T09:39:00.000-06:002008-09-05T09:39:00.000-06:00A fitting tribute to an unsung hero.A fitting tribute to an unsung hero.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
