David & Sheila
Losing someone is never easy but know that Gus is in a better place, free from pain and sickness but he will forever be watching over you. He was so lucky to have you both. We were glad to have had the opportunity to meet him. God Rest His Soul. We are thinking of you at this sad time. HUGS, Chrissy & Brian
