Gus was one of the best and kindest person I"ve had the pleasure of knowing. He took our son Steve and taught him the trade of roofing. After a short time, he made our son in charge of a crew supervising large accounts. He will be missed but never forgotten. May his memory be eternal.

We never met Gus but seems that we knew him for long time trough John and Sandy our very good friends. Sorry for his passing, sincere condolences to the children and to all the family members,

I WAS VERY SADDED TO READ OF THE PASSING OF YOUR FATHER GUS. I KNEW HIM WHEN HE WAS A LITTLE BOY LIVING WITH HIS PARENTS AND GRAND PARENTS IN CHICAGO. MAY HIS MEMORY BE ETERNAL
