I used to come into the restaurant as a child and can still remember Papa Gus's loving blue eyes. I secretly thought he might be Santa Claus! He always brought me out a bowl of banana pudding when I finished my dinner. What a sweet soul. Love to his family.

I was out of the country and heard of Mr. Gus's passing. Charlotte has lost a wonderful man; an honest, caring, and loving man...a local icon. He will be missed by all who knew him. He is in heaven now cooking up the best fried squash in the world. We love and miss you Fresh My Farm!!

My deepest condolences to the family and friends of Mr. Bacogeorge. May the good Lord comfort and lift you up from sorrow.
He made a difference with his life and made a lot of friends through his restaurant too.

My family always enjoyed our visits to Gus' before Checkers' games! Papa Gus always had mashed potatoes with milk for Peyton and Riley. Peyton remembers Papa Gus taking her back to the kitchen and giving her bananas to go. Thrace, our deepest sympathies to you and your family. He was a good, honest, hard working man! Rest in peace dear Papa Gus!
