To all the Kerekes Family : We are so sorry for you're loss for you're Father. We are thinking of you all now in this time of sorrow.

Northeim Family-
Our deepest sympathies for the loss of you Father and Grandfather.
I was really saddened to hear that Gene had passed away. I've known him since I was a very young boy growing up in Amherst. My Father, Howard Werner, who was a Police Officer in Amherst for many years, would often stop at the Cafe and he and Gene would talk, etc. I also had the honor of working with and for him at Ford's Ohio Assembly Plant in Avon Lake. We shared our times and stories about old Amherst and it's many changes. He was a great guy and a dear friend to myself and many others. God bless all of his family and he will be missed by many, but never forgotten.
Dearest Family of Mr. Kerekes
I join with so many people who knew Big Gene in offering my deepest sympathy on his passing. Although it is of little consolation at this sad time, it should be of some satisfaction to know that in his passing you can celebrate the end of a very long and full life.
The measure of a life well-lived is not how much money one has or what possessions they have acumulated, but rather the lives they touched and the sorrow they leave behind. In my mind, Gene will always be a vibrant and outgoing individual who was a second father to me when I was growing up during my high school days in Amherst. He always treated me as one of your familiy and if the ourpouring of sympathy on his loss is any indication, and it most certainly is, then truly his life is one that was well-lived.
May all of you find peace and comfort in knowing that his loss is felt by all who knew and loved him.
With deepest sympathy and warmest personal regards.
Terry Hamm and the Hamm family

Dear Mary & Family,
I would like to extend our deepest sympathies. Many times the Kerekes name comes up here at the bowling center. People fondly remember your Grandfather & Father with stories of old times. I remember high school times that both your Father & Mother were very nice & tolerant of all of us girls invading their house for sleep overs!
He will be remembered & missed. You & your family are in our prayers.
My sympathies go to you and your family. This can be a trying time but if you believe that he is in a better place it will make your grieving easier.
Renee and Family,
Please except my condolencences in the passing of your father. May it help you to know others care. You are all in my thoughts and prayers during this difficult time.
