Glad there is one less coke freak in the world... Gene was a bully would should have been shot by the cops. Considering his family sells a legal drug, the irony of how little he needed cash will forever be near and dear to my heart. I miss him like I miss being able to get St. Julian wine at any local liquor store, which is not too much... Suicidal bully. Rot in hell
