I’m so sorry to hear this , Gene was a friend who always wanted to try new things , go dancing , travel ,out to dinner and just be active  but his diabetes kept holding him down ! He tried so hard to work around it ! I went for hot air balloon ride with him a few years back , it was on his bucket list !  He will be missed!
