The man, the myth, the legend, Gene Wyland, 54, of Anthony Street, Williamsport, passed away peacefully at home on Friday, June 15, 2018 after extended medical issues. He was born in Williamsport on May 16, 1964 to the late Edward William Wyland and surviving mother Theresa Mae Beaghley.

Gene enjoyed living life to the fullest, an avid roller skater, a fan of all music and enjoyed playing drums in multiple local bands in the Williamsport area. He had tremendous love for his family and grandchildren. He also had a special place in his heart for his childhood best friends. Marlin Angelo and Larue Tressler, and also his loving cousin, John Mullinex. His favorite past times were spending time on his porch with family and friends, going to baseball games for Kamar, dance recitals for Lacie, his little fish Brysen, his brown eyed girl Miranda, and Ryan’s laughing memory of running over his foot with the riding lawn mower. Gene loved reminiscing and story telling and was always good for lots of laughter, he was loved by many and will be greatly missed.
