Guy, Though we did not know you well you were always the first to wave or smile as we crossed paths, and we could see your love for life.
You will be missed, and our thoughts are with you and yours during this difficult time.

Oh Guy! This is by far the hardest thing I have ever had to deal with. I recall our recent conversations; just two days prior, never in my mind did I think you would leave us. You would always say, "I never thought I would make it past forty, and if I die tomorrow, I have done everything I always wanted, I finally got the last thing I wanted, a v-drive." I know I have a lifetime of memories, yet looking back at the plant closure, I now see it as a blessing in disguise, I am thankful all the time we had together, family, friends, and so many fun memories I will treasure just during this short time period. I know you are happy now, you're with Doris, and you missed her so much. Guy you will always be in my heart, I love you brother, you were the best. You will be missed, but never, never forgotten. XOXO Love Always Tammy
