He attended Stevens-Henager College on a Wall Street Scholarship receiving an Associate Degree.

Guy worked for the IRS, Criminal Investigations Unit, and was awarded several awards for his service. He loved reading and computers. He had a fun sense of humor, always concerned of others before himself, while despite infantile muscular atrophy his entire life. Guy was an inspiration to everyone who knew him.

Guy's motto in life was: "Life's journey is not to arrive at the grave safely in a well-preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways totally worn out, shouting…. "Holy Cow. What a ride."
