Gene was a special friend to my Husband Rene Plante. I always would chuckle at church during Communion as Gene would walk by him and always pat him on the head. When Rene passed away Gene held my hand with tears in his eye and said I will miss my friend. I now offer up my deepest condolences to Fran and all the family. Elizabeth Plante and Family.

Dear Fran & family,
It is with profound sadness that we heard today of Genes passing.
Have certainly missed the great times we had golfing, lunch, coffee outings and greetings at church when you lived in Goderich. Cherish the great memories and hold them close to your heart. Gene was a great guy, will surely be missed.

Sending our thoughts and love to all the family. Is very hard that we can't be there with you at this time but being able to see the funeral on line helped. Pat, Steve and Mary was good to see you if only that way. Steve and Mary you did very well under the very hard circumstances today talking about your dad. The stories reminded me of the many visits when we were "younger" to your parents house. I had many golf games with Fran and Gene and I always did try to let Gene win! :-) I am looking forward to the day we can all get together again in person.
Love Always Sean, Katie, Aiden and Rachael!!

I know it will take some time to deal with your loss, but you can take comfort knowing he s now with Barry & Kristopher & he s probably putting a smile on their faces.
