Much of his time was spent gratefully with his family, being active with his church St. Agnes in Fowlerville, participating with Knights of Columbus, golfing, travelling, boating and fishing. Eugene also loved Polish music, food and had a tremendous appreciation for life.
He is survived by his loving wife of 58 years Kathy Gierlach, sons Jim Gierlach, Jeff Gierlach, Steve Gierlach (Shannon Gierlach), grandchildren Katie Gierlach and Daniel Gierlach, his sister Elaine Lajiness, and grandnephew Justin Slowik.
