I worked for Gene many years ago on the state desk at the World-Herald. What an incredibly kind man. I loved working with him, and I know he will be missed. My sympathy to the family.
Dear Jim, Caren & Family
Our heartfelt sympathy on the passing of your Father, Father in Law, Grandfather and Great Grandfather. May all of you cherish and remember so many fond memories over the years. God bless all of you.
Gene was my first editor at the Omaha World-Herald, indoctrinating me to the hard-nosed, news-hawking style of the reporting that typified the Lincoln Bureau. He was a level-headed editor who knew what would make a good story. And a hard worker — those editors worked late into the night on Fridays especially, editing that day’s copy and all the Sunday stories we produced. What a great guy. Sorry to read of his passing. Peace be with him and his family.
