I am so sorry to hear of Gus' passing. To this then-young broker in the '80-90's, Gus was a role model, mentor and shining example of integrity. He was remarkably modest, wicked smart and highly principled. He was a true gentleman and a kind friend. We shared many a sack lunch back in the day. He will always be one of my heroes.
