Our condolences to the family of Gus Chiamopoulos. It is very difficult to lose a loved one but especially when they are taken too soon.
I remember working with Gus when he was a cook at the Top Notch Restaurant and I waitressed. He had a great sense of humor and we had many laughs together. May he rest in peace.
