He served as a pastor in four Presbyterian churches and two United Church of Christ congregations. He incorporated his love of nature and care for the earth into his ministry through classes and group experiences in the outdoors.
He was a staff member for Breaking Through, an outdoor skills and deep ecology adult seminar in Colorado. He directed similar youth seminars for eight years. He also directed seminars on High Desert Spiritual Quests for fifteen years at Ghost Ranch Conference Center in New Mexico.
Gene became a co-founder of No More Deaths, a faith-based, non-profit organization located in southern Arizona. In response to the dramatic number of deaths in the desert, thousands of volunteers have carried water, food, and first aid into the desert to relieve the suffering and death of victims.
Gene has received two national awards for his humanitarian work: the Freedom From Fear Award, and the Anne Bartow and Tom Driver Award for Excellence in Non-Violent Direction Action in Retirement.
Genes wife, Sue gave her energies to a career in Early Childhood Education. Together they raised four children, have eight grandchildren, and five great grandchildren. In retirement, Sue is writing a book on their experiences with No More Deaths.ver menos
