I sat with Gene on dozens and dozens of Eagle Board or Reviews over many years. I stopped by his home many times to deliver Eagle Scout applications or to his office at the Scout Headquarters. He was a special ol' scouter that really made the boys earn and honor their rank of Eagle scout more than I expect to ever see again. I'm saddened to hear that Mr. Gafney has gone to that big eagles nest in the sky.
Is your bed made? that was his staple. He wanted not only someone that had done all the requirements but also was a good person at heart. He will always be remembered by so many
You three boys are three of the 1000+ for Gene.

ReplyDeleteI knew before I clicked on the link who it was. Gene Gaffney, I sure heard a lot about him. I feel like I know him even though I never met the man.
