I always enjoyed working with Gene and he was never afraid to speak his mind. I will always have many fond memories of the two of us working in the old Kum & Go car wash. Gene loved putting models together and collecting model cars. When I would see him walking to work I would stop and ask him if he wanted a ride, he would say, 'thanks I will walk.' R.I.P. my friend.

My heart goes out to Gene's family. I remember Gene from working with my cousin Debbie at Tenco in Chariton. When I would pick her up to take her somewhere or to come stay with me, she would always tell me that Gene was her boyfriend. He would buy her a bag of chips, candy bar or some other snack from the vending machine and she would smile big. They would pick on each other but there was a great friendship for many years with those two...may God always take care of Gene.
Rest In Peace Gene Beatty. You will be forever missed. Carl and Annette Marshall
Gene became my step brother when my mom married his dad in December of 1989. Although I didn't get to know Gene all that well, I do remember stopping in to see him a few times when he still lived in Corydon. He would either be watching 'All Star Wrestling' or car races on T.V. Years back Gene could be seen riding his bike around Corydon or shooting hoops at the outside basketball court at the Wayne High School. I also remember Gene's love of putting together model cars. RIP Gene. You will be missed.
