I would like to offer my condolences to Gus's wife and family. Gus was a good friend in our younger years. I worked with Gus at GM in the early 60's. We bowled together and had several coin adventures. We used to go to Windsor together to buy gold coins. We also drove all night to Washington DC to purchase unopened $1000 bags of silver dollars from a vault at the US Treasury. We got there at 4:30am on the day they stopped giving out the bags. May he rest in peace and find plenty of gold and silver coins. Love, Rex Harris
