Not sure what to say?

It was an honor to know him through Fishback and Bruce by way of Les Kroft and the SP&S RR.
Very happy to know the sons are alive and hopefully well.
Think about these folks often having fond memories.
Truly, Mark White.

I knew Guy for over 50 years. He was a wonderful man in every way. I'll very much miss our Thursday evening calls.

I was so sorry to hear about Guy. I have many happy memories of Guy and Ann.

My late husband, Jerry Marshall, worked with Guy at the railroad and he was so impressed with him. He thought he was one of the finest men he had ever met. I'm so sorry to hear of his passing.

Guy epitomized the word "gentleman". I always felt so welcomed in his house, his warm and soft spoken personality was very easy to be with and I will fondly remember several gatherings and celebrations with the LaSalle clan. He was the perfect foil for Ann. My condolences to Ron, Clark, Bruce, Guy and the rest of the family. He will be greatly missed.

The things I didn't know until Guy La Salle's passing- 1) he worked for the SP&S. He had to have known my uncle Les Kroft as he too worked for SP&S. Makes sense as my brother Tim White worked for the RR maintaining repairing telegraph wire & poles. I think Ron Fishback was part of the crew and the two young men became friends until my bros. death by drowning 10/15/1967. By chance I met Bruce as he was employed at Bread & Ink. I hope this note finds both Ron & Bruce well. Hopefully retired and...

Condolences to "Nystrom", Ron, Bruce, Clark and families. Guy lived three ordinary lives. Ann insured they were the most fun couple in the room. Warmest memories of these sweetest and dearest friends. Sleep well.
