I'm so sorry to hear of Guy's passing. He was such an honest businessman. He was so easy to talk with and had such a friendly attitude all of the time. He placed many floors in my house and my Mom's (Norma Boryca). He was an awesome craftsman! My thoughts and prayers are with you and yours. God Bless You! Carol Jenkins
