Anyone who does business with Highway Choppers in Glendale, AZ, probably met Eugene Henry, otherwise known as "Gene".

He was diagnosed with cancer, and there's nothing doctors can do to help him. A fund has been set up to help his family deal with his pending departure. Here's the message on Highway Chopper's website...

I am saddened to inform the public of medical complications regarding Gene, our counterman of over thirty years. He has been recently diagnosed with potentially terminal cancer of the stomach, esophagus, lungs, liver; the outlook (needless to say) is grim.The medical bills are beginning to pile up. To help Gene and his family, a donation oriented bank account has been established with Chase bank, anyone can walk in and donate to the account #718836265. There is also a donation box on the front counter at Highway Choppers.
