Support Geno's Family in Their Time of Loss

It is with broken hearts that we share the passing of our beloved father, Eugene “Gene” Wagner — or as so many knew him, Geno.

Gene was the rock of our family — the steady, strong, and gentle presence we could always count on. He was a simple, easygoing man who lived his life with unwavering dedication to his loved ones. A hardworking provider and the sole provider for our household, he spent his life making sure his family had everything we needed, often putting himself last so we could have more.

This past Christmas, what we thought was a minor health issue turned into a life-altering diagnosis. Our world turned upside down when Geno was suddenly diagnosed with an aggressive form of leukemia. None of us were prepared for how quickly things would change. Despite fighting with everything he had, he spent over two months hospitalized, with his final days in the ICU, as we hoped and prayed for a different outcome. Sadly, the treatments did not work, and we had to say goodbye far too soon.

Geno’s loss has left an emptiness we can’t begin to describe, both emotionally and financially. We are now navigating not only our grief, but also the heavy burden of funeral arrangements and overwhelming medical bills from his hospitalizations.

Any donation, no matter the size, would go directly toward honoring Gene’s memory with the funeral he deserves and easing the financial burden left behind. We are so grateful for the love, prayers, and support we have already received.

Thank you for loving Geno, for supporting us, and for helping us carry forward the incredible legacy he leaves behind.
