So sorry to hear about Gene! Susan and I had lunch with Linda Price last Friday and she informed us. We had such a great reunion at the FGCU baseball game last year. Gene and I were not Marty’s favorites and I still don’t understand why? He was our best hitter in 1954 and we might have beaten Western Mich. in 1955 with him in order to go to Omaha. I did not go to Kalamazoo either because of Marty. We had been on the outs since Pittsburgh game in 1955 when I went 2 for 3 with a HR and a double and he sent to the JV game for the second game as a Senior.Gene accomplished so much during his lifetime, but he never mentioned to me that he had gone to “that school up North” for an MBA. At least I got mine at Miami in Oxford. (just kidding, sort of)There are not many of us left from the 1954 and 1955 teams, but I’m so pleased that I got one last visit with Gene last year.Susan and I send our prayers and sympathy to all of you.

Gene, one of the luckiest days of my life was when you walked into my office as a volunteer from Score, saw the mess i was in and decided to go to work for SC Humanities. You put us on a firm foundation with your knowledge and compassion, and built us into a non profit organization now in our 45th year. Your teaching, dedication, and hard work inspired me and all who worked with us. Rest in Peace dear friend. When i hear of the Buckeyes, i think of you.

Gene Longbrake was a true gentleman even in the tough business of Republic Steel. Many in Massillon will remember him fondly. Nancy was a inspiration to members of Central Presbyterian Church with her creative talents and hard work.
