Rock Springs Miner, Mar 10, 1957
MRS. ROBERT GUY SR.
One of the city's oldest oldtimers, Mrs. Robert Guy Sr., died Monday, March 4, in Sweetwater Memorial hospital. She was 91 years old and had lived in Rock Springs 73 years—two years before the Chinese Riot of 1885.
She was born Jane Young Feb. 23, 1866 in Scotland, a daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Gavin Young with whom she and five brothers and sisters and Robert Guy came to Rock Springs in 1883. She and Mr. Guy were married here the following year and in 1934 they celebrated their golden wedding at their home at 105 Sherman, the home in which Mrs. Guy continued to live until her death.
Soon after coming to Rock Springs Mrs. Guy became active in social and civic circles in the city. She was a past matron of Mountain Lily chapter, Order of Eastern Star and was a member of the Women's Benefit association here for more than 50 years. Her church affiliation was Congregational.
Last December 10 she incurred a broken hip in a fall and had since been confined to her home. She was taken to the hospital six days before her death.
Survivors are one daughter and two sons, Mrs. John Bunning Sr. and Gavin Guy, both of Rock Springs and Robert Guy Jr. of Salt Lake City; six grandchildren and 17 great-grandchildren. Mr. Guy died here in 1934 and a son, John, died in 1910.
Funeral services were conducted Wednesday at First Congregational church. The Rev. David Rose presided and burial was in the Guy family plot in Mountain View cemetery.
Four grandsons, Robert Guy III of Salt Lake City, Christ and Robert Bunning and John Bunning Jr.; a grandson-in-law, Sam Kurtz and William Villanova served as pallbearers.
