It was my wonderful privilege to get to know Gus. He would visit my cubicle in the engineering office and say " There is something not quite right here." referring to dimension on a drawing I had made. And as usual he was right. He knew how and why things worked.
What? No more Gus? There is something not quite right about that.

Message from Nick Taylor

I met Gus at Flemington in July of 1973. I was 10 years old. I was friends with Wally Marks. Gus had mentioned something similar that Wally used to say to me. "You seem to know a bunch for a kid your age. Wally just stated in a different way: "Boy, you ask too many questions". Gus was like alot of guys who were in the pits at Flemington that summer who were wrenches that made horsepower: Badasses.

My deepest sympathies to the family of Mr Frear. May you find comfort in the words found at 2 Corinthians 1:3,4: Blessed be God, even the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies, and the God of all comfort; Who comforteth us in all our tribulation, that we may be able to comfort them which are in any trouble, by the comfort wherewith we ourselves are comforted of God.

Message from John Keller

Ned and family, my deepest condolence on the passing of Gus. After reading the article of his last evening I could only think how gratified he had to be. I feel he left with a smile on his face. I never met him and truly feel it was a meeting I would have enjoyed. Sincerely, John Keller

Message from Marie Darchicourt

My sincere sympathy to the family and friends of this terrific gentleman. I only knew Gus from the races, but with him working under the hood, I always felt sure that Gerald's cars were reach to race to the front of the field. Gus holds a special place in my remembrances of seemingly growing up at the racetrack.
