Gene Stanley Olin, 69, of Flat Rock passed away Sunday, April 29, 2012 at his home following a period of declining health. A native of Watertown, NY, he was the son of the late Kenneth and Rosella Ball Olin.

Gene was a disabled veteran who served in the Air Force. He was honored to serve his country and loved his family beyond measure. He was the consummate gentleman, and always put the needs of others before his own. Gene took care of his mother, Rosella until her death and was cared for by his sister, Debi until his passing. His gentle spirit touched all who knew him.

Survivors include his sister, Debi Moran and her husband Rich of Hendersonville; a niece, Kristel Moran Nelson of East Flat Rock; great niece and nephew, Kayla Moran and Hunter Nelson; and various extended family members.

A celebration of Geneís life will be at 5:30 pm Saturday, May 19, 2012 at the home of Debi and Rich Moran.

    I have never met a kinder or a more generous person until I met Gene. I am grateful that I had not only knew him but I was lucky to have Gene for a brother in law.

    I met Gene delivering his Friday meal from the Council on Aging. He always offered me a soft drink and complimented me on an article of clothing and always thanked me for volunteering. He will be missed.

    We were sorry to learn of Gene"s death. We delivered Mealson Wheels twice a month. It was a pleasure to have him greet you at the door. There was always a kind word from Gene. I know we delivered meals when your mother was alive so it has been a few years. Blessings and Peace Brenda & Doug Decker
