My father and Mr Klompus used to go fishing together when we lived in Florida. Mr Klompus always had a smile on his face when we were together and spoke highly of his children when we were together. He treated me like a friend even though I was an 11 yo at the time. Thank you for the monories, we speak of Mr Klompus often and will continue to do so. Our condolences to the entire family.

Gene was the first person who reached out and befriended my father when he moved into Anthem Senior Manor. They had a lot in common. They use to talk about making their big escape! We enjoyed having Pat and Gene for Thanksgiving . We all had an instant connection to each other. We didn’t know you long Gene but we sure enjoyed the time with had with you. Blessings to all of Gene’s family during this difficult time. We truly loved you Gene.
