Ray has to give a eulogy for his uncle Gus, and he mentions that Gus Patrone was actually born Gustafavio Beiperceilu in 1902. Gus made a living working at Carpet World in Manhasset, he had problems with his prostate in 1992, and he could belch the alphabet to the letter "M". Gus was apparently one of the more well-liked family members. He died of a heart attack and the funeral is shown in the episode "I Wish I Were Gus".
