My deepest sympathy goes out to Marsha, Chico, Robin and extended family. Guy was everyone’s, friend, brother and father… He was true and kind beyond words. His personality was larger than life and he touched so many. He could be counted on for a charming smile and a witty joke or just an interesting tidbit of knowledge. He will be missed by many.

My heartfelt sympathy to the Roper family on your loss. I knew him on a business level and when we spoke he always made me laugh. I wish you all peace and prayers at this time. May he rest in peace and may his memory be a blessing to all that knew him.
