Gene Broadstreet

Francis Eugene "Gene" Broadstreet, II, passed away Friday, May 26, 2023.  Born in South Bend, Indiana, on October 27, 1954, he was the son of Joretta Hook Broadstreet and the late Francis Eugene Broadstreet, Sr.  In addition to his father, Gene is preceded in death by his wife, Laura Broadstreet and his step-daughter, Johnette.

A 1974 graduate of Haralson County High School, Gene went on to work in industrial construction as a pipe fitter.  Overcoming many health issues, he was a hard worker who spent many of his employment years working on nuclear power plants.  His leisure time was filled with listening to classic rock and roll music and watching auto racing.  Gene also enjoyed fishing and watching football..  His passion, however, was spending time with his family.
