GUS, I am sorry that cancer took over your life and God called you home this soon. I am so thank ful for knowing you- the one person who accepted me and Mariah like real family from day one! Ill forever miss you shouting out to me “WHAT”S UP…JENNY FROM THA BLOCK”…you made Mariah and I feel as part of the family from the start. You always referred to her as “Mariahs-on-fiyah” or my “Mini ME”. I loved our chats about pointless things, and having you around for all the football games and spurs game, you sure werent afraid to voice your opinion! When i pulled in the driveway i could always count on you yelling “LITTLE NICKYYYY” to chase and always caring enough to ask how I was and where nick was. You are a true Champ- who had a long hard battle and Im glad you no longer will suffer! Your an inspiration a true fighter til the end… I love you uncle Gus… <3 jenny from the block ( as you say) =]
