As we all slept, on wee morning hours of October 9th, a legend shed his earthly armor and took it to the sky!

Thomas "Tom" Gust Jr. Retired his worldly skin and bones and jumped on his fully clad in chrome double pipe big old Momma Jama Special Angel Edition Harley Davidson and left to lead the most bad ass biker gang in the afterlife. Some of the locals even whisper even if Peter Pan is jealous!

If you knew us, Kandie and my dad you we lucky. Not many shake the hand of a superhero every day, ask Lily, she'll tell you, (she was his Robin) If you want to sit across a long table for a good ole' tale ask Dominic, Eve, or Norma about grand Poppa adventures. Or sit down with any one of his many adopted grandbabies! You see Tom was such an amazing human that one of his superpowers was LOVE! He loved to love and always needed a trusted secret keeper that one person who knew the truth but never told, Tom choose wisely in Yvonne, Amy, and Laura respectfully.

The most rocking thing about Tom's secret life as a man, myth, legend was he so easily was a man of mystery, a man of many identities; Dad, Poppa, Poppa Rodeo, Husband Batman, Brother, Cousin, Friend and other unmentionable names to some.

It's hard to believe really that a man who knew and was loved by so many could keep such a big secret, but I mean with great power comes great responsibility, right?!

So, as he rides on in the afterlife with Amy riding bitch, there are no more secrets to keep, he is free! And the world down here will miss him!
