Dear Mark and Family,
I knew Guy from Fitzwilly’s in Bridgeport long before I competed with him in food sales, and he was always a friendly adversary.
We will miss him and will be praying for your whole family as you mourn your loss.
With sympathy.
Jeff Noccioli and Family

Jeri: We were shocked and saddened to receive the news of Guy’s passing on the last day of 2019. What a blessing that he was at home with you. I hope you can find strength through your love and memories. It is evident just through the photo you selected to share here that he was a good and kind soul. All the comments above reflect the same. Those 22 years together feel like a mere wink in time. Hold onto your hope and faith. We send you our thoughts and prayers. Love, Cousin. John & Pam
My heart is broken .. I just heard about Guys passing and I’m in total shock .. 30 yrs plus of friendship .. I met Guy at Fitswillys and cut his hair since .. always enjoyed our long talks and many laughs … sending you all so much love ❤️
Mark,
I met Guy when he worked at Statewide Meats and he struck me as being a regular and very friendly guy. Someone who you felt that you wanted to know better. I suspect that anyone who met him probably felt the same.
My sincere condolences to you and all your family.
Your friend,
Rob Nielsen

I was so saddened to hear about Guy’s passing. I will always remember him as kind and compassionate, with a great sense of humor. I know that he was welcomed through the pearly gates by my sister, Tricia and the rest of the Eileen Road crew that have passed. I will keep him and your family in my prayers.

I spoke with Guy a minimum of once a week for over a decade. I loved connecting with him and am saddened by his loss. May God hold his family and friend n the palm of his loving hand.

Guy~It’s been a year since you left us & I’m still trying to get thru the 5 stages of grief. We were extremely close all our lives & I miss you more than words can say. When Mark told me you passed away I froze~you are not suppose to be gone. I am so glad that I came home last summer & we spent time together~something I will treasure. So in order not to be sad I choose to remember the fun we shared~such as getting in trouble with Uncle Ed because we shared a lounge chair in their backyard at whatever occasion that was, every Christmas Eve gathering at your moms house & most years it did snow & we would go walking in it, the time you came to Florida with Mike & Tommy & we partied until the wee hours in the morning & I had to go to work a few hours later, being best man at my wedding & threatening to sing some song to embarrass me. Oh my dear cousin there are so many wonderful memories & I’m sad there won’t be any more. So until I see you again keep the peace between your dad & my mom~you know how your dad would aggravate her on purpose😏 I love you & miss you greatly🥰
Happy birthday Guy, you are missed more than you know. Love You❤️
Happy, happy birthday my dear sweet cousin. It’s just not the same without you here. I miss the laughs & fun times we shared. It’s not fair you are not here. There aren’t enough words to tell you how much I miss you & how much I love you, but I’m sure you realize that. I hate this is the way I have to talk to you, but just wait until I see you again. I love & miss you so very much. XOXO
Karen
