Gene married Bonnie Marie Johnson on June 15, 1962 in the Manti Temple. They are the parents of 4 children; they have 12 grandchildren and 4 great grandchildren. He was devoted to his family, worked hard, and provided well for them.
Of the various jobs he had, driving truck was the one he loved the most. Anything weather related was his fascination. He liked playing games with his family. His favorite game was ROOK, and on the rare occasion he lost, a rematch was sure to follow.
Gene was an active member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints and served in many callings.
He is survived by his wife, Bonnie; children: Brenda (Lisle) Crowley, Kendall (Kandy) Curtis, Mary Lou (Troy) Bown, Sue Ann (Michael) Brokaw; brother, Joe Curtis and sister, Annie Leuiene (Jay) Olsen. Gene was preceded in death by his parents, a brother, and a sister.
