My darling husband passed away, on March 16th 2017, Mr. Guy Doughty, was caring, informative, understanding, generous, and kind at a time when I was lost, hurt, greiving, and broken, he understands ..the emotional ....side of a loved one passing, he understands the financial, the family and he handled all with great concern for me...I am grateful I left my lifetime soul mate and loving husband in his care...I could not afford to do all I wanted, but Mr. Guy Doughty never once made me feel uneasy for not being amble to do all I wanted..his integrity and values for his clients is his utmost concern
