LIFE STORY:
John Guisti
A longtime friend, loyal Marine, dedicated employee and faithful Christian man has left us on his last journey.
He was getting old and gray and sat around telling stories of past life experiences especially his exploits as a Marine Sargent in charge of Embassy security details in the Philippines and Vietnam,
His kindness to the residents of Wynmoor and his ability to help employees develop their talents so they may advance their careers were exemplary and beyond the call of duty but we will har his stories no longer for John has passed away and the world is a little poorer for a soldier died today.
He will not just be mourned by his family and friends for he lived a quiet and uneventful life silently going his own way and setting a great example for others to follow. Just a common soldier and humble hand who left a trail of kind deeds for those he left behind.
