He served until September, 1945 when he was honorably discharged at Jefferson Barracks, MO. When he returned home, he started farming - his first love. After 10 years, he decided to do something new. Gene started in road construction building new black top roads. He worked for Cessford Construction in LeGrand until his retirement in December of 1979. He then started working for Leonard and Dean Dueland and continued to work until the age of 85. Gene hated to give it up as "it was the best job ever with good bosses". On March 31, 1946, he married Veletta A. McAtee at the Memorial Lutheran Church in Nevada. Gene was a longtime member of the Memorial Lutheran Church and the William F. Ball American Legion Post #48 in Nevada. He and Veletta enjoyed dancing. To this union two children were born - son, Daniel G. Poush of Nevada and daughter, Diana Lynn Sage.
