God bless you Gene, your so kind and help out there, sorry you went through all this, I’m disabled too, don’t get around to good since my neck and back surgery, have metal rod in my back now, if Ronnie was still with us you wouldn’t be going through all this, you helped Judy out and she doesn’t repay your kindness, Ronnies probably not to happy about that , but your a good person and God and Ronnies watching over you, your kindness will be rewarded, God bless !
I’m a big fan of this man here Mr Gene Odom as soon as I’m able I’m gonna come to your neck of the woods and do your tour and have watched just about all of your stuff I can find I love the true stories of my heroes I’ll have you In my prayers and will be seeing you the lords will coming from a fan
Hearing this breaks my heart ,so many people are going through hard times ,I lost my home I had paid for, for years ,I thank God for my daughter who insisted that I live with her and my grandson, I send love and prayers to you ✝️💜🧂🪖🇺🇸
Oh, Gene...such a sweet, honest man. Gene has clearly possessed a willingness to work hard all his Life. So sorry to learn of his "bad luck" and "bad news" being "the only kind of news" he gets. 😢 I will be joining his Patreon! God bless you, Gene 🖤
I’d say if anyone should be helping Gene out financially, it’d be Judy Van Zant. Without Gene she would’ve never had been able to uphold the blood oath to never tour again as Lynyrd Skynyrd.
Gene Stood up for Judy. During the reunion tour. And convince Johnny to do it. And they I'll turn There back on him. Now, that's greedy. Anyone Thinking of going to see this tribute band. Should instead donate the ticket price to This man He gave his all for this band and still paying for it Today
Yeah that pisses me off that after helping out Judy she wouldn’t do anything to help him out! Especially Johnny. Gary’s gone now so he has no reason to have any bad feelings towards Gene.
@@roso67Or vice Verda. Gene stood over Gary Rossington’s grave and talked shit about him. Gary is gone, maybe Gene should give it a rest too. That was more than disrespectful.
I'm so tore up about what you and Ronnie went through gene you deserve a whole lot better life what I don't understand why lynard Skynyrd don't look out for you
How cool would it be if the Lynyrd Skynyrd fans did for Gene what Ronnie promised. Make him rich! Had it not been for Gene RVZ would have been cut out by GR
I have the same problems. I've been waiting on a disability determination for 2 years now. It's not even gonna be as much as yours. My maiden name is the same as yours maybe our luck is related too. I hope this works to help you out. Good luck from here on out.
God Bless Gene. Would love to meet you sir. Actually visited the Vanzant home site and Ronnies resting place a couple weeks ago. Thought about you Gene while I was there.
Gene, if I somehow get rich I'm gonna pay it forward to you brother!! Loyal friend and a man of your word!! Disgraceful that all the millions and millions made off of RVZ and they don't take care of you!!!! Anyone that was on that plane and survived should be on LS payroll for life!! #shameful ##RVZrollingoverinhisgrave
Gene my last name is Crunk. And I coined my bad luck as having Crunk Luck. Heck I even wrote & recorded a song after it. So I know where you're coming from man. And I had the wrecks & disability just like you, so I'm familiar. I've never been on a plane, though. I'm a huge Skynyrd fan! I'm surprised we never met through music. Been to Jacksonville once right after Leon died. I was good friends with Jo Jo & we did some shows together a few yrs before she died. Once here where I'm from in Muscle Shoals Sound Jackson Hwy 3614 Studios
Gene I would love to help you bud but it looks like we're in the same boat, I'm on social security and they only give just enough to barely survive and now I know why people take their own lives or sit around all day and get very unhealthy but you seem in good spirits man. I hope it gets better for you financially.
Hey Gene there is a song that been out for a bit by a man named Oliver Anthony. I know that ronnie Vanzant was a man who wrote real songs. Oliver Anthony's song is called Rich men North of Richmond. I'd love to hear your reaction and do you think Ronnie Vanzant would like the song?
Johnny making all that money all this time, should have carried out Ronnies wishes and pay Gene. He left his union job for real Skynyrd band. Stop being selfish and help this man out. Do a fund raiser at a few shows. They have made a ton of money, they can spare some of that.
Lynyrd Skynyrd is officially done. Gary was the last surviving member of the original band. That should be the end of it. Gene made a deal with Ronnie and unfortunately Ronnie passed away 46+ years ago. Gene made the choice to give up his job and that was the chance he took. Sorry for Gene but we all must live with our decisions.
Gene should've been set for life after the plane crash! He was just too loyal and honorable to sell out his best friend's family. I'm with you, Gene! Looking forward to helping as much as I can, Brother.
