I have known Gene and Diane for about 20 years. I helped their daughter Julie, and son in law Trace, buy a house many years ago. When I met the "parents" of my buyers, I was not expecting such kindness and support. I could tell they wanted the best for their daughter and trusted her to make the right decision for she and her husband. Diane and Gene were a pleasure to work with as well. They were professional and calm and very understanding. Gene would make us laugh and always showed us such kindness. He will be missed. Hopefully he is coaching some angels.

I met Gene and Diane through my wife Kathryn. Gene was the epitome of a gracious host, and he and Diane were always a pleasure to be with and work for.
Gene may be gone now, but the happy memories he created for his friends and family will always be part of us.

So sorry to hear of Coach Gene’s passing. I have fond memories of his 3 years at Camden County College when he and Cliff Crispin lead the Cougars to the Junior College World Series. He was a fantastic coach and beloved by players and opponents equally. His knowledge, and love of baseball, was unsurpassed. Rest In Peace, old friend. Bob Smith, Camden County College.

Throughout my lifetime I've never known a better man than Gene McDonnell. It was my privilege to call him "Coach" many years ago at LaSalle; an experience that I will always treasure. Since that time it has been an honor to call Gene "Friend" for more than fifty years. Gene McDonnell's positive influence on hundreds of young men assures that he will not be forgotten. Rest in peace, my friend, Gene.

One of the classiest baseball people I have had the chance to be around. As a player for Temple I always respected Gene for his coaching and the teams he fielded year in and year out. Gene always was a professional on and off the field. Just one heck of a great guy! RIP Gene.

Diane,
I have fond memories of you (at Jardel) and both you and Gene at LaSalle. Joe always spoke very highly of Gene both as a coach and more importantly, as a person. My deepest condolences to you and your family. May memories of all the good times bring solace and consolation during this difficult time. May he rest in peace.

Gene was a very special person and provided a great experience to his players over his many years as a coach. He was the epitome of what school athletic leadership should be: a competitive desire to win balanced with sportsmanship and fun. I have so many happy memories as an Explorer baseball player that Gene enabled.

Gene was truly one of the great ones.
Beyond his love of baseball and his outstanding coaching ability, I will always remember him as sincere, caring, and a good friend to many.
His La Salle roots will live on forever.

As one of hundreds of players that passed through Gene's guidance and instruction during his illustrious career as baseball coach at LaSalle, I want to express my deepest condolences to his family and close friends on his passing. Gene provided me not only the opportunity to play under his leadership but also his generosity to help finance my education. I am very grateful to have had Gene McDonnell as a special person in my life. Best always.
Regards,
Tom Marsh
