Gus was a very talented man, nothing became impossible for him and whatever he did, he pretty much did it well. He loved to work so most of his life he spent as a rancher as well as a mechanic. Gus was eventually able to retire and spent many years at home with his loving wife.
Gus was a very caring man and always placing the need of others above his own, practicing “love thy neighbor”. One thing that will be greatly missed are his stories, stories of the days gone by and stories of his life. Yet not only the stories but his jokes, he loved to make others laugh and smile. Yes, even if you didn’t speak his language, you eventually understood what he was trying to share with you. Gus not only enjoyed seeing others joyful, but he had joy, this joy came from his love for God. Gus loved and served his father until the day he went home to spend eternity in his father’s presence.
We will see you again cowboy!
