When I think of Gene Bennett, my mind takes me to Lake Texoma and a little red
Run around Boat. It sat on the water about 8"(inches) above the water line, it zipped
Across the water surface barely leaving any evidence it had been there. He LOVED
that lil red boat! God bless you Gene.
We will miss Gene very much. Our prayers are with the family.

We are truly saddened by the passing of our classmate, Gene Bennett, class of 1957. He was a great friend and will be missed by all. Eugene was special to our family because he took my brothers number 80 after the 1952 state championship. We had some great football memories. God bless all affected and treasure your memories of a wonderful guy. Tom, Virginia Leatherwood DeLong and Kelsy Leatherwood.
