Gus D. Ollinger
1970 - 2014
Condolences
I Miss Gus Dearly and wish his siblings were there more for him then they say they were for the past couple years...
I will always love and miss him.
I had many good and bad times with him.
Dear Cousins; Donna, Audrey, Nick and John,
So sorry to hear about Gus passing. I don't recall ever having met him since he was born the same year my second child was born and life was never flexible enough to see many cousins after that.
I did read all the posts written by others and watched the images, so in some small way, I feel like I got to know him and truly missed a unique and wonderful human being, despite his complexities!
One thing I do know - we always, always enjoyed our time together with the Leo/Mildred clan in our younger days, when we had the chance. My sister, Lil and I had slumber parties with Pam and Donna and laughed so hard our faces hurt - don't think much sleeping was accomplished! The laughter was a good thing, since both our families had been through some rough times. I am sure Gus followed in the Ollinger tradition of enjoying what he could of life, despite its difficulties
May God bless all of you with His peace beyond all understanding for your hearts and minds. May you all draw near to HIM and to each other in the days to come! Much love, Cousin Mary
I was saddened to hear of Gus's passing. I remember him as a sweet young boy, somewhat shy but with a ready smile. You are all in my thoughts and prayers.

We are sorry we could not attend the gathering for Gus. We want to extend our deepest sympathy to the whole family. We have requested to have masses said at Our Lady of the Snow's for Gus. It is so sad to loose someone at such a young age. May God bless you all and our prayers are with you in these difficult days.
I'm so very sorry for your loss. You are all in my prayers and Gus is now safe in Gods care. Love you all.
Donna, John, Nick and Audrey,
We are so sorry for your loss. May those good memories that you keep close to your heart help you get through this sad time. Sending prayers your way. Wish we could have joined you today at the Legion. With deepest sympathy.

Donna, we were so sorry to hear about Gus. Only met him a couple times, really sweet guy. My kids remember him fondly.
Please know our thoughts a prayers are with you and all your family members.
Gus, I will always remember your carefree personality, your flirty charm, Your amazing talent for creating Art Designs, you could draw anything! Your excitement for Collecting Star Wars and Old Comics, your laughter at your own funny jokes and stories, the joy your Jack Russell puppies brought you, You actually showed me the pictures of the puppy in the towel's at work, Of course your Bike, What you loved most though was your Mom, When I heard you left us here on earth I reached out to my Aunt in Texas asking her to help me say my final good-bye to you as a few weeks before we met by chance one evening and spent a long time chatting and you told me things I never thought I would hear you say, so you rest now Gus, you have earned your eternal peace, you walked a long journey in a short time here on earth.
God's Presence is with People and He will live with them and they will be His people and He will wipe away every tear from their eye's and there will be no more death, sadness,or crying, or pain because all the old way's are gone.
Revelation chapter 21 verse 4. peace my friend.
May you find the peace on your next turn of The GReat Wheel that you could not find on this one. We love you...
On behalf of Ralph Donovan and his family we send our deepest condolences. My dad (Ralph) has many memories of Gus growing up and was disheartened to hear of his passing. Gus was one of my students when I taught at West High School. Our thoughts and prayers are with the family. RIP Gus
God speed to Gus and all of his family. May you all find peace and comfort knowing he is living eternal life now.
Donna, John, Nick, and Audrey,
I am so sorry to hear about the loss of Gus.
He truly was one of those unique individuals. This is a true tragedy when something like this happens to someone that was so intelligent, witty, charming, (among so many other great qualities) as Gus was. He was one of the brightest people I know. Hopefully he's at peace now and can stop running from the demons. There will never be another person in a million years like Gus.
My deepest sympathies go out to all his family and friends!
Our thoughts and prayers go out to all of you. I love this poem .
Don't grieve for me, for now I'm free;
I'm following the path God laid for me.
I took His hand when I heard Him call;
I turned my back and left it all.
My condolences to the family and friends of Gus. It has been over two decades since I last saw Gus, but I do remember him as always smiling, always rushing from one class to another....pushing his glasses back up when they were starting to slip. He wasn't at Regina long, but he was known by many and will be remembered by us as a nice guy with a great smile. RIP, Gus.
I met Gus through a mutual friend in 1999.I dated him for a brief time and remember how compassionate and caring he was. There were many times that I would have gone hungry if he didn't take me out to dinner. I was young at the time, and starting out in life with little change in my pocket. For that I am ever so grateful. He was so in love with me but I cannot return those feelings because my heart was destined to belong to somebody else. He was a good friend and I will never forget what he had done for me. For I was hungry and you gave me food and I was thirsty and he gave me drink. I will always cherish the memories of the good times we had together. I am sorry to here that you struggling with life it makes my heart just ache. Underneath all those imperfections was a man pure of heart that only God knows.
Ollinger family you are all in our prayers. Gus was a good man and he will be missed by many. R.I.P. God Bless You All.
I have known Gus since my freshman year in high school .We use to hang out in Jeff Reese's basement and laugh and raise hell. I think Gus really loved life he loved having fun and hanging with friends playing paint ball video games comic books and a good game of quarters.Him and his girl friend at the time let themselves in to my house at 3 in the morning and almost got shot one time . I think Gus kinda lost his way the last 5 years or so but he always had a pure soul . I will miss talkin about the old days with him . He is one of the few people I considered as being A true old friend. Miss you bud.
My heart goes out to Gus' family. He was such a kindhearted person with a happy spirit. A lover, not a fighter....I am so sorry he lost this battle.
Peace be with you.
we send our deepest sympathy. May good memories and God get you through these truly rough days.
