You have my deepest condolences for your loss of Eugene. No matter how long our life is , it is never long enough. Death is truly an enemy of all of us and I'm sure he will be greatly missed by those who knew and loved him. Our loving heavenly father Jehovah will reunite us with our lost loved ones soon as promised in the Bible book of Revelation in chapter 21 and verses 3,4. These verses may bring you much comfort .
