Gene was born in Taishan, Guangdong, China on October 13, 1950. He was happily married for 46 years. Being a 3rd generation grocer, Gene had a career in the grocery business spanning his whole life. He had a passion for working with his hands and could frequently be found fixing or maintaining the family car or getting the washer and dryer up and running again. Later in life, he rekindled his Christian beliefs and joined the congregation at Fort Bend Community Church where he was baptized on August 17, 2014.
He was preceded in death by his grandparents and parents. He is survived by his wife, sons, daughter, daughters-in-law, grandchildren, sisters, brothers-in-law, nephews, nieces, niece-in-law, and grandnephew.
