Since the passing of our dear friend Gus, we can honestly say that not a day goes by without us missing him. The world was so much better with Gus in it. Along with his wife Lorraine, he raised a wonderful family and honored the Lord every day of his life. We were blessed to call him our friend. Until we meet again...
Love,
Bob & Shirley

To My friend for over 40 years,

Your friendship has meant so much to Shirley & I. You were our best friend. Every time I think of you, I had a smile on my face. You made me laugh so often and you had such a kind heart for everyone. You loved your children, grandchildren & great grandchildren dearly and spoke of them often with so much joy & pride. You had a picture of your beautiful wife Lorraine by your favorite chair in your house. I know you adored her & looked forward to being with her again. You and Lorraine have a beautiful family and it's not surprising based on the honor, integrity and faith in God that you both lived by your entire life.

You were willing to do things with me that I suggested that not many men at 90 years old would be willing to do. You enjoyed a beer with me, saw Top Gun, Bells of Saint Mary's & Its A Wonderful Life, frequent trips to Costco enjoying the $1.50 hotdogs, $5.00 Roast Chickens & snacks at the various food stations. I remember at Costco when you were 89, you actually ran with your carriage & beat me to the cashier to show me how limber you were!

The only thing that I did not appreciate was that you beat me in billiards/8 ball with a crazy difficult shot that only a hustler could make.
You also beat me in Miniature golf that also was a severe blow to my ego!

You decided to leave this life before I could regain the billiards/golf titles. I can't blame you as Lorraine was a much nicer and prettier person to see versus my crusty mug.

Gus, we love you with all our heart & hope to meet up again in heaven!!
