We loved Gene at Chick-fil-A and he quickly became a friend to many of us. I will always remember Gene and I am praying for comfort for your family.

My favorite memories with him is when he would come into Chick-Fil-A and he and i would always make a goofy face to each other (such as sticking our tongues at each other while having our thumbs on our forehead) & no matter what, he’d always give me a huge hug & call me his best friend. I also couldn’t wait for my daily good morning Meme’s he would send me daily 🩵
Tami the favorite grandchild (wink,wink)
I love you pepa!
