A devoted husband, father and skilled professional. Gus, born in Detroit, Michigan, served in the Army, stationed in Iceland and trained at Camp Lejeune. Dedicated to his work, he retired from a successful career in tool and die. Beyond his professional achievements, Gus found joy in spending time with his family especially his grandkids as they bonded over puzzles.
In his leisure moments, he immersed himself in woodworking, crafting beautiful birdhouses of leftover materials. The serenity of his cottage in Milford, Michigan, brought him immense happiness, where he cherished lakeside moments with family and friends.
Gus and his sweetheart Mary Ann shared a love that spanned over six decades since their marriage in 1960. His legacy lives on through the love he shared, the memories he created and the craftsmanship that touched the lives of those around him. Gus will be dearly missed by all who had the privilege of knowing him.
