Eugene graduated from Molalla High School in 1969 and married his wife Susan (Weber) Layman on January 8, 1972. Together they had two daughters, Michelle and Jennifer.

Eugene was a good man. He never complained about anything – even when he wasn't feeling well. He was a good husband, whom his wife called him her "honey bun," a good father, grandfather, and provider. He was a very hard worker who stayed at the same Mill for 42 years even though they switched hands, the last being Interfor Pacific where he drove a fork lift.

He is survived by his wife, Susan; daughters, Jennifer and Michelle Layman; grandkids, Austin Webster, Brittany Schmitz, Olivya and Cameron Layman; great grandson, Jace Schmitz; his brothers, Don Layman, Wayne Layman, Ray Layman and Lester Layman; his half-sister, Carol Bruce; step-sister, Mary Jean Baker; step-brother, Harry Wyland; as well as several nieces, nephews and cousins.

He is preceded in death by his parents, his step-fathers, Alan Wyland and Clayton Thomas; his brother, Gary Layman; step-sisters, Dorothy Dahl and Cathy (Wyland) Niday; and great grandson, Cody Layman. He will be missed by all who loved and knew him.
