Dear Liz and family Just wanted to say how sorry we are to hear about Eugene's passing. We remember him as a man of substance, and he will be missed. He was always first to volunteer whenever we needed help taking Jay and his friends to a Knights game or elsewhere. We admired his ability to make everyone feel comfortable, and envied the ease with which he joked and kidded with Jay. When Eugene came into a room, laughter and goodwill soon followed. You are all in our thoughts. Nancy & Don Edgar
