He loved his family and was loved by his family.

According to some of Gene's friends, he was a very respectful and decent person, who was always willing to give a helping hand. 

Gene is survived by his brothers, Fred and Simon Lucero (Simon's wife Christine) and their children Ruben, Dominic, and Joshua.  Also nephews Martin and Adrian Lucero (sons of Herbert Lucero, deceased brother of Gene) and various nieces, nephews, and many friends.
