What a great photo of Gus! That is how I remember him- smiling and happy. He had the ability of making a person feel special just by being present. I miss the days at Babcock Lake when our neighbors, the Franzes' would arrive for a weekend or the summer. I believe we are, the person we are today, because of people who come into our lives and make us realize our potential. Gus was definitely an influential person who contributed to my success today. Thank you Gus! My heartfelt condolences to Grace, Jeanne Marie and the entire family and friends. May he rest in peace. Linda (Connor) Otero

Dear Grace, Jeanne Marie and Family: My mom (Nancy), my sister (Cindi) and I send our sympathies to you during this difficult time. I remember always seeing Gus jogging around Wiggand Drive. I am glad I was able to see you and Gus and talk with him one last time at my dad’s memorial service in 2017. My parents enjoyed the privilege of your friendship for many years. Our thoughts and prayers are with you. David Reusswig Mechanicsburg, PA

Always sad to hear about another loss from our "old neighborhood" in Glenmont. Sending Grace, Jeanne Marie and all family members our heart-felt condolences for your loss. I didn't get the chance to know Gus well, but he and the Franze family were nonetheless a part of my early childhood memories that I recall once in a while when chatting with old acquaintances about the 'good old days'. Keep the fond memories you have of Gus close to you in these sad times. Kindest Regards, Bob Keefe
