Thanks guys. I think Keith is right about it being junior year. Regardless, Gene was a good guy. The picture just reminded me of how young he was and that he should have had a lot more years.
Yes, Keith is correct, it's '77. I couldn't remember. I knew it wasn't his senior pic. I sent it to Sue and she showed it to DeDe who told us the year.
Yep, I agree Jack. He should have had a lot more years. I saw him just a few of months before his transplant, sat with him through a dialysis session. He was so happy and looking forward to getting back to doing all the stuff he loved, hunting, fishing, working on his cars, playing with his kids. If there's anything good that came out of it, it's that he was full of hope for a much brighter future.

Miss you my old friend. So glad I got to visit you before the end. Found this pic of you while cleaning out a very old box of stuff.
