Gene lived a life anchored in love, first and foremost, a deep and unwavering love for God. His faith guided every step he took and shone through in the way he treated others, with kindness, humility, and grace. Second only to his devotion to the Lord was his unending love for his family. He cherished his wife, children, and grandchildren. Gene was a faithful member of Dobson Chapel Baptist Church for more than 45 years. He served in the United States Navy for 4 years. Afterwards, he tried his hand as a body mechanic in Kenansville, then chose a life of service with the United States Postal Service
