My deepest sympathy to Stacey and Guy's family. I did not know Guy well but I certainly knew that he accomplished. It is simply tragic that his life has been cut short. While artists have the highest profile in the American theater, the theater can only exist with unsung heroes like Guy. His dedication to the art, the artist, and the audience was unrivalled over the course of his amazing career. The people he inspired will help continue to move the American theater forward. He had a very special presence and passion for his work and his relationship with others. Everyone working in the theater today owes something to him. But Guy didn't need a "parade" in his honor--believing in what he was doing was all that mattered.
