Robert Eugene “Gene” Riley, Class of 1949, had his family help him celebrate his 87th birthday in Fairmont.

It’s difficult to keep the Riley men straight because I think they all have Robert in their names, just like the Olesky family has five generations of Johns in their names.

His children who were there were Robert “Kip” Riley, Class of 1971; Cheryl Diane “Cherie” Riley Cottrill, Class of 1968; Rhonda Kaye Riley Wilson, Class of 1975; and Vicki Riley DeWitt, Class of 1979.

Kip Riley lives in White Hall.

Nancy Riley Basnett, Class of 1960, is Robert Eugene Riley's first cousin. Nancy's dad, Howard Riley, was a brother of Filmore Riley, Robert Eugene Riley’s father.
There’s a Charles Riley, Class of 1965, but I can’t figure out which branch of the Riley family tree he belongs to. If you know, email John Olesky at jo4wvu@neo.rr.com
