Richard G. Guy Memorial Scholarship Endowment

Born in St. Cloud, Minnesota, in 1927, Richard G. (Dick) Guy attended Adventist schools through his freshman year at La Sierra College, when he was drafted into the U.S. Army. He returned to La Sierra to continue his education in 1947. His interest centered around English and Journalism, and he anticipated a career in church public relations. He published articles in Riverside Press, Signs of the Times, and poems in two volumes of America Sings. He was a strong leader in student religious activities, a typesetter for the College Press, and part of the editorial staff for the Criterion student newspaper. While traveling home to Michigan in the summer of 1949, he died in an automobile collision. Milo W. Loye, M.D., alumnus (’49), friend and roommate of Dick, established this memorial scholarship to assist students interested in communication and journalism.
