Geno was a great friend. We have known him for years. He used to live close by us in Madison years ago. He helped so many people and was the kindest person we have known. RIP my dear friend.

I met Gene when I was just 8 years old. He was a Cub Scout leader when I joined. He moved onto Boy Scout where we stayed close friends for 58 years. Gene was one of my best and closest friends. We probably went on over 400 campouts together. I miss him already. Thanks Gene for all the memories and laughs. Rest in peace.

Mr. Eagan lived on the corner, just down from the house my family grew up in. I remember how kind he was to everyone and how much all the neighborhood kids loved playing his backyard. Mr. Eagan also had a cabin in Avoca that he invited many of us to stay at during the men's softball tournaments each summer. Some very special memories were made there. What a wonderful man. My condolences to his son Gene and Brother Fr. Joseph.

Dear Geno-O Such a joy to witness his pleasure volunteering at the school, and the delight he had to use his power chair and venture downtown unassisted to meet all of his friends in the community. I was activity director with him years ago, and found that he needed no direction, just the contacts to keep doing what he loved. Much appreciation to his family for supporting him in being as independent as he could be. Kathy White
