Shocking and sad news! He was indeed a bright light. I spent two days last August with him at TechConKona which he initiated and help organize: a truly innovative event blending green tech and social networking. He encouraged me in my work developing a local/community exchange and had me speak about this at the conference. When he arrived he gave me a wonderful tour of the NELHA park which is truly impressive. I was very much inspired by Guy and will miss him.

For all on Hawaii Island or for those who might be here at the end of the month, a memorial service followed by a celebration of Guy's life, will be held:
Friday, November 30, 3 p.m., at Kona Hongwangji Mission
81-6630 Mamalohoa Highway
Kealakekua, HI 96750Guy was involved in so many aspects of life here in Hawaii nei, from sustainability to community action to mentoring leaders. His absence will leave a huge hole in the community. The world will be a little less energetic, green, and amusing without him.
