Gus was a truck driver at heart and loved the open road while working for Fisher Fazio’s. He also hauled steel for a while and worked in the produce section of Walmart after he retired.
Gus was a tireless worker who loved talking to anyone who befriended him. One of Gus’s great joys in life besides his family, was his hobby of putting up wonderful Christmas decorations each year for family and friends.
He will be remembered for his kind heart, generous nature, and contagious laugh. He will be greatly missed.
