You will never be forgotten Gus, as we "trudged the Road Of Happy Destiny". Our 12&12 tells us on Pg 105, that living on the "Higher Power" Path of life, that all will be well in the here, and the "hereafter". You will be missed my friend.

Though it may have seemed hard to get to close to you at times, your heart was always in the right place and you were always there for anyone in need, anytime they needed it. As the saying goes, "It is not how much a man loves, but how much he is loved that counts" You leave a whole bunch of people who might have been somewhat put off at first, but who came to respect and love you. Vaya Con Dios my friend.
