I was his neighbor growing up on Arturo Street in West Covina, CA. Eugene was always after money because his father used to tell him negative things so he wanted to prove dad wrong. He was a very hard worked sleeping outside and working the oil fields during the day. In WW1 he was a soldier and once showed me a German Lugar he picked up. It was a sniper model with a long barrel and clip and wooden shoulder stock. He got it when his fellow soldiers were being picked off by a German sniper and Eugene happened to notice a dead frozen horse out on the battlefield moved slightly. Eugene shot into the dead horse and crawled out and found a dead sniper inside the hollowed out horse. Pretty smart and brave. Eugene made his money from the stock market and owned a race car track in Irwindale, Ca.
