  2. Prayers for the whole family. Guy was one of a kind, love the carved mailbox he did for me and the Santa ornament. He taught me a lot at Sellers before he retired. I use that knowledge every day at Sellers.

  3. Guy was a treasure. He was talented, intelligent, personable, and a great lover of life. Our connections with Guy and his wonderful wife, Anna (Russell) Ingram, go back over ten years, through the Boyle County Genealogical Association, and my research into African American families and history. His photographs of South Second Street have become a part of Danville’s history, and other photographs have enlightened the family history of a former slave’s family, shared with descendants in Ohio. Stopping for ice cream at McDonald’s after BCGA meetings in Perryville was a wonderful event. We have been honored simply by knowing Guy.

  7. We are so sorry to hear of Guy’s passing. We pray that God will wrap His loving and comforting arms around each of his family and friends in the difficult days ahead. We knew Guy through our dad, Marvin Holt. We know that our dad and Guy must be carving together in heaven now. They always enjoyed carving and sharing stories. He will be missed.

    Love the Marvin Holt Family

  9. So sorry to hear about the passing of my friend & classmate. Guy invited me to be his assistant in the projection club the first day I attended DHS in 1949. We enjoyed various Key Club conventions together and particularly the 1953 trip to Los Angeles in 1953 when 8 young men drove to CA. The trip lasted 6 weeks and covered over 8,000 miles as we viewed the sights of mid and western USA. Guy photographed our trip for memories to last our life-times. I shall miss my good friend.
    Ron Chilton,
    President of the 1953 DHS Class.
