I also knew Guy since childhood. He lived on the street behind my cousin Valinda. All of us kids had so much fun. Then we grew up and Guy remained the sweetest person ever. I was so blessed to have known him!

I met Guy in 2nd. grade at Rigdon Road Elm. we played together, spent the night at each others house, played little green army men, cowboys and indians, electric football, real football little league baseball, then girls came into the picture, it got foggy after that. We lived one street over from eace other and were friends for life. He had not a mean bone in his body.

I'm so sorry to hear of Guy's death. I worked with Guy at Tom's for many years. He was such a nice person. when a person worked with him he was very dependable and helped any way he could. I remember Guy love chocolate Cake and Mac and Cheese. "May God hold Guy in the palm of His Hand and Angels watch over Him"
