I am so sad to read about Jean Guys passing. He was a great friend and mentor. We had such great times in Vernon that I’ll never forget.
Irene, I thought about Jean Guy and you so many times. You are always in my heart and great memories, and I thank you both for that.
So Cheers to a wonderful wonderful man.
Your Friend

Irene and family;
I was saddened to learn of Jean Guy's passing and send condolences to all. I have very fond memories of a great neighbor and a very challenging boss. The world is a lesser place now that he is gone to God's kitchen.

Many fond memories of slipping out of my kitchen at the Tokaj Villa and visiting Jean Guy in his kitchen at Jean Guy's Restaurant on Yates Street. We spent many hours chatting, reminiscing, drinking wine while Jean Guy created his culinary magic.
The luminescence of the Victoria food and hospitality industry has dimmed a bit with the loss of one of its bright stars. He has touched the lives of most of his fellow chefs and restaurateurs and his ever cheerful bravado will not be soon forgotten.

Jean Guy I always loved your stories of the stuff the staff gets up too in those big hotels and kitchens. We had many a good laugh at The Country Rose. You were one of my (our) very favorite neighbourhood regulars. Rest in peace My Little Croissant.

Dear Irène and family,
I was very sadden to learn of the passing on of my old companion in crime.
He will be missed.Unfortunately we had lost contact after I sold Ambrosia, and I wish I had reach for him, but did not.I am sorry for that.
Jean Guy was a great human being, fun and full of joie de vivre.
For all the years we worked together, I only have good memories.
We laugh,we argued, and worked we'll together.
I will never forget one of his favourite sayingit is not nice to fool Mother Nature
I do not know if I will be in Victoria next Saturday. We were supposed to leave for France two days ago, but had to postpone as my wife became ill.
If I am still in town Saturday, I will be at the service.
Please accept my sincere condolences.
He will be missed.
