Ya I think it could be overkill here. That being said, my long-time mentor and actually one of my father's best friends gave me a ton of advice along the way and actually connected me to a few individuals and tried to help me as much as he could even though he has two kids my age who were trying to get into banking as well. I knew that he went out of his way and that his favorite drink is gentlemans jack so I bought him a 5th as a thank you.

In your case I would say maybe something like some cigars or something that you know he really likes if he really bent over backwards. Just know you could go overboard.
