Sad news, I'm sorry for the loss of your friend Dick.

Condolences to the Hanson family as well as Gene's friends...

Godspeed...

of a good friend, and fellow musician and corpsmate, Eugene Hanson, of the
Andrews Sabres. I first met Gene while a freshman at Portland High School, where
I played trumpet along with him and his buddy Denny Ramsdell. Both Gene and
Denny later on joined the Andrews Sabres in Portland, and we all played lead
soprano right up through high school. Then, to top it off, I had the honor of
joining both of these guys to do a trumpet trio to Buglers Holiday at our
graduation ceremonies in 1960. He was a great asset to both the Sabres and the
Portland High School Band, and a good friend. I believe he later went on to work
with OLiva Gorey and the 5th Maine Regiment for awhile.
