    Eugene had a big personality with an amazing way of bringing a
    smile to someone’s face.
    In fact, I am sure if you just took one second you could think of
    something funny, he would say to make you laugh. Virgil also had
    a gift to repair automobiles and was a handy man in his own right.

    sense of humor and bold personality was infectious.
