The Milwaukee Region lost a good friend and active member – John Guy -- on March 8. John joined PCA and our region in February 2004. John took personal interest in making Porsche Park at Road America an incredibly beautiful and inviting space for Porsche owners to gather. The Milwaukee Region is grateful to John for his many years of dedication to sprucing up Porsche Park with annual planting of flower beds, protection of the trees in fall to ward off deer during the winter months and the annual spring ritual of cleaning up and preparing Porsche Park for another season of use. “John was pivotal to the enhanced appearance of Porsche Park,” said Ron Pace, region secretary. “He will be missed.”

John, 67, a resident of Mequon, was the beloved husband of Nancy L. (nee Pease) and the proud and loving father of Andrew and Brian Guy. Dear brother of Sally (Larry Barbaras) Guy, Christopher Guy and the late Susan Mauro. Brother-in-law of Rick and Ginny Pease, Sherry and Tom Stecker, and Jack Mauro. Further survived by many loving nieces, nephews other relatives and friends. Visitation at EASTBROOK CHURCH, 5353 N. Green Bay Ave., in Glendale on Sunday, March 14 from 2 p.m. until time of Memorial Services at 3:30 p.m. Memorials in John's name may be directed to Eastbrook Church ministries or American Institute for Cancer Research, 1759 R Street, NW, Washington, DC 20009.
