Welcome Richard Sauget the Managing Partner of the Gateway Grizzlies, a Gold Sponsor for the Love A Senior Day in Belleville, IL June 10, 2022.

Join me for a wonderfully inspiring interview with Rich as I sat with him in his office overlooking the GCS Credit Union Ballpark. Rich shares his story from growing up in the Belleville area to his college and professional baseball careers and brings us full circle with his mission for the Gateway Grizzlies and the baseball park.

As Chairman of the Board of Touchette Regional Hospital and member of the Kenneth Hall Regional Hospital Board of Directors, Mr. Sauget has been instrumental in developing and expanding healthcare services to low income families in the Southwestern Illinois area. Mr. Sauget also played a key role in the development of Archview Economic Corporation. In addition to serving on the board of TRH, Mr. Sauget is the Chairman of the St. Clair County Building Commission and is a member of the Regional Chamber and Growth Association, Regional Business Council, and Lambert Airport Board.

Spending time with Gene Verdu, or as his friends refer to him, “Uncle Gene,” was such an amazing day for me! This episode was created to be the kick-off podcast for The Love A Senior Day in St. Clair County, (Belleville, IL) in October 2021. We unfortunately had to postpone the event until June 10, 2022, so we decided to move forward with the podcasts and share the great stories Uncle Gene has to share about his work over the years with children in Belize AND seniors in the St. Clair County area.

 Uncle Gene never stops thinking about new things to do to enhance people's lives and the programs he has created will live on for generations to come! 

 Unfortunately, Uncle Gene passed away early this year, and although The Uncle Gene Foundation was to have been the host for the Love A Senior Day in June 2022, they have moved to be a GOLD Sponsor and honor the namesake and driving force behind their foundation.

 Grab a cup of coffee and sit back, relax and enjoy Uncle Gene share his story on the show.
