I was sorry to learn that Jack Guy, a prominent attorney from Monticello, has passed away. According to the Monticello Herald Journal he died at 12 p.m. on Friday, March 31, 2006 at the age of 76. His son, White County prosecutor Bob Guy, said he died of complications related to the lung cancer he battled for the past 3 years.
The White County Bar Association will be conducting a Memorial
and Recognition on April 7, 2006 at 11:00 a.m. in the Court Room of the White Circuit Court located on the third floor of the White County Building.
Kevin O’Neal, writing for the Indianapolis Star has an article on his passing. Guy served as both Representative and Senator and was instrumental in getting Monticello rebuilt after it was largely flattened by a tornado in 1974.
I had only one case against him (I lost) and did not know him well, but he was a good lawyer and a respected member of the community. Rest in peace Jack.
