Gustavo will be remembered by all he worked with for his leadership, talent and stewardship of our Company,” Harriet Edelman, Independent Chair of the Bed Bath & Beyond’s Board of Directors, said in the statement. “Our focus is on supporting his family and his team and our thoughts are with them during this sad and difficult time.”
