Eugene’s hobbies included his love for BBQing for family and friends and would join BBQ competitions with his team ‘The Barrell Boys’, where he placed in several categories. He was always the life of the party making alcoholic beverages for everyone and making sure everyone ate his delicious BBQ. In his peaceful time, he would enjoy his love for cigars and Bourbon. Eugene loved to travel the world and explore new sights with his wife and close friends. Eugene will always be remembered for his kind heart and willingness to help.
