Hank Hutka wrote a sympathy message

“Cindy, You and Gene were among the first individuals I got to know outside of the division I worked at HES. As time went on, I became a very brittle diabetic and Gene helped me through some rough times with my diagnosis. We would check on each other and give each other encouragement and support. It was mostly Gene helping me. Through our visits we managed a few laughs and Gene was a great help to me which I won't forget. Im very sorry about what happened. God bless and God Speed. Truly Hank Hutka”
