Goose Memorial 2025

In this special 2025 memorial broadcast, Cat81 Radio honors the life and legacy of Chris Manguso, aka Goose. This tribute reflects on a profound friendship built over 31 years of working together, during which Goose served for many years as my driver engineer, a role he carried out with professionalism, trust, and heart. After retirement, Goose was diagnosed with cancer and, following a courageous journey, eventually succumbed to his illness.

The program also honors Goose as a devoted father to Paulie Manguso, and the deep friendship he shared with Dave Dorsette, who knew him better than anyone other than Paulie. In a final act of brotherhood and respect, I had the honor of driving Goose in the caisson unit to his final resting place here on earth. This 2025 memorial stands as a reflection of love, service, and faith—and a testimony of hope, as I look forward to seeing Goose once again in heaven.
