Not sure what to say?

Gus and I were fraternity brothers at UGA.....I always enjoyed being with him and around him...he was an upbeat guy....one year we played a year long game of gin with no payout until the school year was done....I don't remember who came out ahead, but we wre pretty evenly matched. Enjoyed visiting him in Deland a few years ago...even fell in love with a tie he had on display.....bought it and have worn it many times.....he will be missed.....Mike Frank

I just learned of Gus's passing last night. Gus was a huge friend to the Deland High School football. As the head coach from 1993-1996 he was a big part of our success. His faith and support in our program helped us to achieve success. The times I returned to Deland, I always stopped by to see him and talk about "Bulldog" football. Rest in Peace my friend.

A part of my life since day one and a true member of our family. We will miss our "Uncle Gus" dearly. Hearts are broken for sure, but so very grateful for the funny, happy memories that remain. (and there are many!) Much love floating your way, Arlene. Please plan that tour of New England as soon as you are ready...we are ready for you. Sending so much love...I wish we could have been with you. Erin, Mark, Emerson & Garrett Ballou

One week ago today, we had you for your great nephew's birthday dinner....you'll be in our thoughts forever!
Your HUG goodbye never felt like the last one!

My prayers are with your family. I will always remember the good times we had at DeLand High. Thank you for all the things you have done here in our town. I will miss you. Sue

I have known Gus for over 15 years. He was a client of the CPA firm where I work. I have very fond memories of Gus and will miss his smiling face. My thoughts and prayers go out to Arlene, Marcia and the entire family.
