I loved my Uncle Guy. So many great memories as a child when we would all meet at Uncle Ernest's Cabin. Spending time with family catching fish,playing horse shoes and especially going to the caves!! Oh and always loved when Uncle Guy and family would come for a visit in one of his big Motor Homes!!

My deepest condolences.. Guy was such an amazing and kind man - one of few my son, Jax, warmed up to immediately. Jax always loved visiting "Mr. Guy" and so did I.
He will be sorely missed.
My thoughts & prayers are with his family and loved ones.
