A pall has been cast over the land. The past Fourth of July an ill wind swept over the Vineyard and took with it a native son, Gus Ben David.

A pall has been cast over the land. The past Fourth of July an ill wind swept over the Vineyard and took with it a native son, Gus Ben David.

He as a family man, a born leader, veteran, prankster and friend to all. Nature was his calling from early childhood throughout his lifetime.

His magnetic personality brought together many people into lifelong friendships.

It is said that time heals all wounds. This wound will never heal. Gone but never forgotten. Rest in peace brother.
