Kay, Jerri and Matt, I’m sorry for your loss. I have many great memories with Guy through the years, we went to church together at Lockwood where he taught our Sunday school class, other memories are camping, fishing, and our weekly breakfast group we had together for many years. I don’t think I can describe Guy very well, but I found a verse in the Bible that does, I’m pretty sure Guy had all these characteristics. The fruit of the spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self control. Gal 5:22,23 I’ll miss you Guy.
