Guy moved to Forsyth County, Georgia from his family's home in Snellville, Georgia shortly before his February 1987 disappearance. He was employed as a stable hand at the Sleepy Fox Farm, a horse ranch in Forsyth County, about 25 miles from his family's home. His fellow workers last saw Guy at approximately 9:00 p.m. on February 7, 1987. He was preparing to return to his parents' residence in Snellville for the weekend.

Guy was accompanied by an unidentified Caucasian male known only as Jeff. Jeff was approximately 5'10 and weighed 180 pounds. He had brown hair and a beard. Jeff was driving a 1972 - 1974 Chevrolet Impala on that evening. He and Guy entered the vehicle and drove away. Guy has never been seen again. His parents were contacted by the Sleepy Fox Farm's manager on February 9, 1987, two days after Guy and "Jeff" were last seen on the property. The manager informed them that their son had not reported to work that day. Guy's family stated that he never arrived in Snellville the previous weekend and filed a missing person's report with authorities. Foul play is suspected in his disappearance.
