In Loving Memory
Gene grew up in Cranbrook attending Central Elementary School and graduating from Mt. Baker Junior/Secondary School in 1957. While in school he participated in many sports from basketball to hockey.
Gene married Sandy in 1965, building a house and bringing up their 3 children. Gene worked at a number of jobs but spent many years with BC Tel/Telus as a lineman. He loved the outdoors spending time camping with his family as well as fishing and hunting. He also loved dogs from the ones that he had growing up to those he enjoyed in later life.
Gene is survived by his wife Sandy, his children daughter Laura (Chris), son Jeff (Cara), son Ryan (Martha), grandchildren Max, Finn, Linden and Jade.
Gene was predeceased by his mother Julia Frost, his Father Gillay Zeznik, and his brother Mike Zeznik.
Upon Gene's request there will be no service. His family requests that in lieu of flowers please donate to the Cranbrook SPCA or any charity of your choice.
