Gene Fowler, Jr. was a kind and generous soul. An artist, a writer, a lyricist, a dancer and most importantly a beloved son, brother and friend. Gene loved his home of New York City. He spent his time traversing the city on rollerblades, or walking it’s streets with music constantly playing in his ears. In more recent years, Gene was an avid practitioner of martial arts, dedicating time to hone this new skill. Gene expressed his art through illustrations, oil painting, graffiti, rap and written verse. Gene was an extremely talented dancer and b-boy. He was a natural performer. Gene was the electric frontman of the NYC metal band, Wetnurse. Along with his band, Gene released several albums and toured nationally to large crowds. Gene had an infectious smile, lighting up any room that he entered with his positive energy and vibe. He was always the life of the party. Gene is survived by his mother Sandra Lockett, his brother Antron Lockett and will be missed by many friends who loved him deeply. Gone, but never forgotten, the memory of Gene Fowler, Jr. will live on in the hearts of everyone who knew and loved him.
