Condolences & Memories (39 entries)

• Hard to believe it's been ten years since you've left this earth...When I think of you I remember the good times. Your corny jokes and that crazy smile! The twinkle in your eye that always got to me in ways you probably never knew. Until we meet again... - Posted by: Gail Beaudin (Friend from back in the day) on: Sep 08, 2024

• My sincere condolences to the family. Just found out about this and was absolutely floored. We had first met in 1976 when I was just a teenager. We had lost touch over the years but I had thought of him often, his smile, the way he was always having fun, that little twinkle in his eye that always touched me like nothing else. I was lucky enough to meet up with him again in 2006 and we had a chance to catch up. He was a good man and will never be forgotten. Godspeed Guy, you will always have a very special place in my heart. - Posted by: Gail Beaudin (friend from back in the day) on: Nov 09, 2017

• Guy was always nice to us kids and taught us how to play baseball when I was very young. We reconnected on fb and chatted from time to time. He used to complain that I typed too fast on messenger and he had a hard time keeping up with me.

My condolences to his family and close friends. - Posted by: Rita Delfing (acquaintance ) on: Sep 17, 2014

Myself I really never knew Guy that well but we knew each other through you. There were times many years ago at those great beer gardens EAST ELMWOOD C.C.

• Guy was a good friend, we spent lots of time while we were in our 20's going to the lake together. Guy will be missed. God Bless - Posted by: Darren Webb & Family (Friend) on: Sep 15, 2014

• Guy was my first friend living as a backyard neighbor - the football games in the park, ball hockey in the back lane and sleep overs as young kids is what I remember in the early years. Learning water skiing and playing around the dam at St. Malo was a lot of fun in those years. I could go on with hanging out at Elmwood Community Club playing whatever sport that the season allowed was what we did best. Recently just meeting up with Guy and talking on the phone about the things we used to do brought back a lot of fun things we did together. It was just recently we were planning on having a little get together with some of the old friends from the Elmwood years. I have many great memories about all the years we spent together as neighbours. Conrad Starkell - Posted by: Conrad and Kim Starkell (Freind ) on: Sep 15, 2014
