  1. We are all going to miss you so much Gene. Your kind heart and sole can never be replaced. You were truly, one of the most committed employees to this town. Making you blush and smile once a day, went a long way with us Gene. Forever in hearts, we all love you.

  2. Although we never met physically, Eugene and I spoke on the phone weekly for over a year when I worked for Dell, Inc. a few years ago. Eugene was one of the kindest human beings I have ever known. To hear of his passing saddens me, yet I know we will get to meet one day in eternity. May God bless his family and coworkers

  3. I am sorry for your loss. My heart and prayers are with you during this difficult time. I pray you find comfort by embracing the sweet memories. I worked with Gene at Town Hall. He was so kind and always had a good a good word for everyone.

  4. By Henry Scott-Holland
    Death Is Nothing At All (modified for Gene)

    Death is nothing at all.
    It does not count.
    I have only slipped away into the next room.
    Nothing has happened.

    Everything remains exactly as it was.
    I am still Gene, and you are still you,
    and the old life that we lived so fondly together is untouched, unchanged.
    Whatever we were to each other, we are still that.

    Call me Gene, the old familiar name.
    Speak of me in the easy way which you always used.
    Put no difference into your tone.
    Wear no forced air of solemnity or sorrow.

    Laugh as we always laughed at the little jokes that we enjoyed together.
    Play, smile, think of me; pray for me.
    Let my name be ever the town hall or household word that it always was.
    Let it be spoken without an effort, without the ghost of a shadow upon it.

    Life means all that it ever meant.
    It is the same as it ever was.
    There is absolute and unbroken continuity
    .
    Why should I be out of mind because I am out of sight?
    I am but waiting for you, for an interval,
    somewhere very near,
    just round the corner. probably having coffee.

    How we shall laugh at the trouble of parting when we meet again.
    One brief moment and all will be as it was before
    Nothing is hurt; nothing is lost. All is well.

    I miss you so much, Gene!

    These words have helped me. I share them hoping others will also get comfort from them.

  5. I want to express my sincerest sympathy to the Tworek family because of losing Gene in death. When our loved ones fall asleep in death, the pain and grief seems unbearable. Our loving God Jehovah (Psalms 83:18) understands how we feel and he comforts us by means of his word the Bible. Psalm 34: 18 tells us: “Jehovah is close to the brokenhearted; He saves those who are crushed in spirit.” Jehovah invites you to throw all your burdens on him and he will sustain you in your time of grief. None of us are guaranteed tomorrow, but we are all guaranteed a resurrection. (John 5:28, John 6:40 and John 11:25) For more comforting scriptures please visit: http://bit.ly/1K38EFt. It has given me hope, strengthened my faith and helped me find the answer to Why? I know it will do the same for you. Again, the family is in my prayers and I offer my heartfelt condolences.
