Happy Birthday, Gus!

Dear Hearts,

August 8th is the birthday of Augustus S. Lee, known as Gus. Gus is Jim's--and now our--beloved friend. Gus's wife Diane is his soulmate and Gus speaks unabashedly of his passion and admiration for her. They write books together, love their children and their grandchildren.

Gus has brought truly meaningful and important stories to the world through various media outlets--books, podcasts, interviews, etc. We can all appreciate the talents and goodness of this man by visiting his website at https://www.guslee.net/about/, or by searching his name on Youtube and Wikipedia. Recently, he was honored by West Point's Library and Associate Dean to have all eight of his books added to its illustrious permanent historical collections.

I have not yet met Gus in person, but hope to do so one day. Through electronic communication/media, however, I have come to know him as a wonderful person who is incredibly humble, considerate and loving, while serving our world as a courageous and righteous leader. I'm guessing the phrase "gentle giant" has been attached to his name more than once.

Happy birthday, Gus, and may you have 46 more healthy ones, by the Aunt Joannie Sullivan Law of Longevity Anticipation of 2008.

God bless us and save us and keep us from harm.

Love, Patty
