Gene Martin Passed Away

by Keith

Our neighbors on Third Street, at the corner with Main Street, were Gene and Vivian Martin. They were there two winters, 2009 and 2010. Because they were nearby neighbors and I found Gene a very congenial fellow with very interesting experiences, I have pictures of him in three settings.

The picture above was taken at the Valentine's Day Party in 2010. It pictures Gene as the Southern Gentleman that he was, along with the love of his life. What a great party that was! It's special for me because I have pictures of each couple who attended. The pictutres are a good memory aid to help me remember all the wonderful people who became our friends at Rockport 35 RV Park.

Here's Gene in a typical setting: out at the picnic table, having his morning coffee! He was always good for a friendly visit and willing to share some of his experiences. It's not everyday that you get to chat with a former professional wrestler!

Tom, Terry, Bob, and Gene
One great kitchen crew!

Rest in Peace, my friend.
