   I would like to extend my deepest sympathies to the family of Mr. Gene Bos. Death is an enemy to us all, but God promises a wonderful resurrection hope for the future which encouraged me when I lost loved ones and I hope it does the same for you all.
  Mrs. Bos, I doubt you remember me. I was a Cub Scout with Roger back in 1957 and 1958 and you were our den mother. We would go to your house in Riverdale  for our meetings. I have many fond memories of that time and was deeply saddened when you and your family moved away.
  Once again my condolences to all of you for your loss and my very best wishes for the future.
                   Sincerely,    Ray Roush Jr.
  

We have such fond memories of 'Gene-ba' as we called him so often.  Aileen and Gene - they were quite a pair when I met them when I was attending Fresno State.  All alone with no family in Fresno, Aileen and Gene treated me like one of their own kids - but it was more than that......we were friends and have been all these years (over 40 years).  I looked up to them - for the people that they were as individuals and together.  Hard to believe I ended up working in management for Sears as Gene had proudly done for so many years as well.  They set an example for all the world to follow.... in how they led their lives - always giving to others.  Every day was like that!  Gene always made us laugh - when he smiled you couldn't help but smile too!  He liked to be the life of the party too!  He showed everyone a great time!  I felt proud to introduce them to my husband for the first time when we visited them in Fresno after we had moved away from California.  We were delighted that Aileen and Gene could stop by our home in the suburbs of Chicago in 2001 to visit for a bit.  

Gene touched our lives and will always live in our hearts!  We love you 'Gene'ba' and will miss you.  Thank you for all that you taught us, shared with us, and did to help make us better people.


Dad at Alan and Tashina’s for our annual family Easter gathering. Dad loved having his family together during the holidays. There were so many great memories made during this time. Dad loved watching the kids hunt for Easter eggs and cheered us on during our annual kickball game. 

This is a picture of Dad and Alan working in the yard at the house. 

Grandpa and Grandma always supported their grandchildren!  They loved supporting  Sammy at his graduation from  Buchanan High School.  

I love this picture because it is usually grandma that has the camera and grandpa telling her to hurry up and take the picture...but this time I caught grandpa with the camera!  I hope he got the picture he was wanting.

Grandpa Gene always made a point to get family together and every time the girl cousins get together we laugh and reminisce about all the wonderful memories that we have had over the years...because you brought us together.  

Not only was I lucky to have my grandpa for 44 years of my life, but our kids also got to know there Great Grandpa Gene too.  How many people can say that?  Grandpa loved the kids, and they loved him.  This is Paige Dominguez (Marla Enmark Dominguez's Daughter) and  Mckenna Clay (Mindy Enmark Clay's Daughter).

Here is a rare photo with Grandpa & Grandpa and both Roger and Wayne Enmark's families (missing were Amanda and Ross Parker).  Everyone knows that when Wayne Enmark's family was in California we would eat at Sal's for every meal...grandpa never objected. 

Grandpa & Grandma always hosted the best Christmas gatherings.  When we were young it was at their house and I will never forget that Grandpa would decorate his garage and set up tables and heaters in there.  His garage was well organized and always clean.  As kids we would sing and entertain the entire family, but as all the grand-kids grew up we outgrew their home at started going to restaurants and then larger venues.  This picture is one of my favorite.  Parker Dominguez and his Great Grandpa Gene at the Christmas party in Santa hats.  

Parker loved talking to Grandpa about his service in the Navy and being a World War II veteran.  Here is a picture of them at Christmas!

Here is a picture of Grandpa Gene and his favorite cell phone...YES it was PINK!  We harassed him for a long time, but it never bothered him, he wanted that pink cell phone and he was proud of it!

Always loved our trips over to the coast. Grandpa always filled these trips with awesome memories. I will never forget him in the morning with his cup of coffee, news paper, and a pastry. As we would all go down to the beach grandpa would stay behind and prepare his amazing clam chowder. I will miss you grandpa, you are an amazing person and taught me a lot in life. Love you!

A great memory I have with my grandpa is our card games. He loved playing progressive gin. I remember when I was just a little girl watching him play and as I grew up learning the game. I think about all the times we played together, especially on our coast trips every year. I am so blessed to have had him as my grandpa and I know he is going to be greatly missed by so many people. I love you grandpa.
