Gus
Stroozas
October 10, 1938 – October 31, 2018
Gus Stroozas, born on October 10, 1938 in the village of Strooza, Greece, to John and Victoria Stroozas, passed away at age 80 on October 31, 2018 in Meridian, Idaho.
Gus was raised and completed high school in Superior, Wisconsin. He served in the United States Army, returning to Superior, where he married Donna Nelson. They had a son, John, born in 1970 and a daughter, Jennifer, born in 1975.
Gus lived his life as an incredible example of hard work, humility, kindness, and generosity. He worked his entire career in the grocery industry, loved playing and watching baseball, and was an avid fan of the Green Bay Packers. Gus enjoyed telling stories about his amazing life experiences, but he would light up the brightest when talking about how proud he was of his children, their spouses, and his grandchildren.
Gus was preceded in death by his parents and wife Donna Stroozas.
He is survived by his son John Stroozas and wife Kellie; daughter Jennifer Zeltwanger and husband Jeff; and grandchildren Kaitlyn, Jordan, and George.
Friends and family can join in a celebration of Gus's life on Saturday, November 10th at 10:30 a.m. at Rockharbor Church Hub Venue, 1608 N Meridian Rd, Suite 125, Meridian, ID, 83642.
A family memorial was also held in Superior.
