You will be missed Gus, I know I surely enjoyed all the time we sat at the round table and solved the world problems, we will remember
My deepest sympathy and prayers go out to Gus’ family and friends.
Gus was a kind man who looked after the cement Maple Leafs at the cemetery where my parents were buried. He also placed small Canadian flags in them. I am so grateful for his care to their grave site. Thank you! Karn Durdin
