A delightful gentleman along with his lovely wife.
\nBefriended the Parmans on a visit to RI over twenty years ago and remained in touch. It was a small world story, having gone to MVC in Marshall.
\nGene and I enjoyed spirited \u201cdiscussions\u201d about the Chiefs and the Patriots over the years but he always came up short when it came to SB trophies!
\nGod love you, Gene, and RIP.
