He graduated from Richmond High School in 1953. He joined the RCMP in August 1956 and started his career in Ft. Macleod and from there he bounced around a bit. In 1971 one of the highlights of his career was given security service detail, protecting the Prime Minister of Canada. In 1980 he retired from the RCMP in Edmonton and has resided in Red Deer since. He then worked at Parkland Savings &amp; Credit Union and then on to selling Life Insurance and Investments. Gene loved travelling, astronomy, movies, reading and coin and stamp collecting.
