I am sorry to learn this sad news. Jim, Judy, Georgia & Carlos I know you definitely have made the last several years good for Gus: giving him excel- lent care and showing him much com-passion, and may God bless each of you for that. Even Blackie brought him as much love & comfort as possible by sleeping right by his side since the Summer. Now, may Gus truly rest in peace with the Lord.
