Eugene “Gene” Alfred Flowers, passed away peacefully on February 24, 2024, at the age of 77 in Bluffton, SC, surrounded by his loving family. Gene was born on September 15, 1946, in Monongahela, PA, to Vivian and Alfred Flowers.

Gene also had a love for travel, exploring destinations far and wide, always eager to experience new cultures and cuisines. He appreciated the simple pleasures in life, relishing in the company of loved ones over a glass of red wine or a cold pint of beer, indulging in seasonal pies, and an array of cheeses. Above all, his heart found its greatest fulfillment in the warmth and laughter shared with cherished friends and family.
