Eugene Brink was born, August 5, 1946, in Anamosa, Iowa. He was the son of Marvin and Opal (Wink) Brink.
Gene married Linda Iben on August 6, 1966, at the Viola Methodist Church.
Gene served in the United States Army during the Vietnam War. Following his return from the Army,
he worked at Nissan Trampoline and later worked at Cedar Rapids Welding Supply as a salesman, where he retired after 34 years.
Gene was a former member of the Broken Bit Saddle Club and enjoyed his pastimes with his horses, Sapphire and Sonny, and taking them to many town parades. He loved to go hunting, was an avid Hawkeye sports fan, and enjoyed watching the Cubs, the Braves, WWF Wrestling, and a good ol' cowboy and western show. The one thing that truly made him smile was asking about and seeing his grandkids; each one meant the world to him.
