Yeah, I was extremely sorry to hear the news last night. Many condolences to his family and those who knew him better. He always seemed like a great guy.

I'm very sorry to hear about Gus. Much peace to his family and friends.

Oh, what sad news to wake up to. Kimi, I am so sorry for your loss. Gus brought a lot to the board, and he will be missed. And, as others have said, please let us know if there is anything we can do to help. That's what we're here for.

In the last two days I've skimmed through 900-some posts in here. Ahh, how I've missed my talky Bitches. {{}} and ~ma for anyone that I miss.

Much peace and ~ma to you and yours, DJ. So sorry for your loss.

vw, love your Thelma. Are you now going to get a food processor and name it Louise? What appliance will be played by Brad Pitt?

kimi, thanks for coming to tell us about Gus. I don't think I really posted with him, but I am sad to see him leave us. Much peace and love to you at this difficult time. ::raises glass::

And then the rest of the thread gave me allergies. I'll need to be braced for the wake, as the outpouring of love from the Buffistas floors me even on an average day.

Thank you Trudy for posting a link to this in Beep Me. I was just reading through threads this morning, came across the wake suggestion in Bureacracy, and was very confused, so I went striaght to Beep Me.

I have little to say that has not been said by people more eloquent than I am, upthread, but my condolances to Kimi and Seamus and Seamus's wife. Gus's wit and humor will be greatly missed here on this board.

Kimi, thank you for letting us know. I'm so sorry for your loss. I don't do scotch, but I shall fly a kite in memory of Gus. Damn, what a loss.

Welcome 2007. Let's do better this year, ok?

I just logged on a few minutes ago and I was so sad to read about Gus. Although we spoke a few times and posted together frequently, I never knew where the weremonkey name came from. It's funny what you can not know online.

My first interaction with Gus had something to do with calling him good looking. I don't remember the details anymore, but he was funny. I am sad that we have lost him and so sorry for the loss kimi and the rest of his family are undergoing.

What appliance will be played by Brad Pitt?

Now where's Trudy when you need her?

Kimi, please accept my condolences along with everyone else's on your loss. Gus was a very special man, and we were so lucky to have him come play with us on this board. Thank you so much for coming yourself to tell us he is gone. You, Seamus and his wife will be in my thoughts.

Just saw the news - I'm shocked and saddened, and reminded by all the quotes of what a fantastic and all-round buffista-ish person Gus was from the moment he wandered into these parts. We're all better for having known him. Kimi, thank you, and my love to the whole family.
