I still remember playing poker with loose change as an 8yo child. Guil was a great player and when it was my turn, he let me call the wild card for the next round. I yelled "Aces"... and he just burst out laughing with his hearty laugh and said "who let this kid play?!!!" He was always a good host.

My three boys and I will always treasure the happy memories we made with their Uncle Guil - especially his hearty laugh, playing cards, his hospitality at Christmas family get togethers with their Aunt Sue's Rice Pilaf. We know he's setting up card games with St. Peter and the gang for a well deserved life reward to a great brother-in-law. Rachel Clark
