Gene and I were friends at Lamar and Rice but we met earlier, as members of the starting 5 on the 14-and-under State Championship basketball team at South Main Baptist Church. I was a 5'11" board-crashing forward and Gene was a slick ball handler and deadly outside shot. Later, I ran track and played football at Lamar, but that South Main team was the peak of my athletic "glory". Sic transit gloria mundi.
RIP, Gene!
