Eugene Lewis "Gene" Poole
July 28, 1935 - Aug. 12,1992
Son of Ned Lewis & Bernice Eldora Kuhn Poole, married 1st Helen Marie Joy, Jan. 9, 1955 in Logan, Harrison Cnty, IA, daughter of Gerna Boyd & Nellie Marie Mulnix Joy, and 2nd Donna Marie Kruse, March 16, 1963 in Fremont, Dodge Cnty, NE., daughter of William Hansen & Helen Louise "Tiny" Bay Kruse.
Gene had his own private trucking company, called Poole Trucking. He ran everything from the dump trucks to the 18 wheelers, along with my Uncle Larry in the early years. He helped lay highway US 30 from Blair to Missouri Valley with his dumptrucks. After that he drove flatbed. I can remember for years growing up in Fremont, playing in and around the old dumptruck boxes that we had in the back lot. He maintained his trucks to the T. He loved the open road.
We love and miss you so much Dad, your son Craig & your daughter Jeanie Poole-Kirshen.
