William Lee “Billy” Guy, age 48 of Beatrice, NE, passed away peacefully at his home on June 24, 2023. Billy was born on December 30, 1974 to Steven Russell and Frances Clara (Lurz) Guy. He attended Gothenburg Elementary School and was a 1993 graduate of Ainsworth High School. He moved to Beatrice with his mom in 2000. Billy loved to garden and volunteer. He was an amazing friend and helped anyone with whatever – whenever. He never met a stranger and almost always had a smile on his face. It was his nature to always be busy and did so by baking goodies for people, collecting, gardening, and riding his bike. He never spoke ill of anyone and enjoyed being one of the crew at Maxson’s Barber Shop. He was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer on October 21, 2022 and fought his cancer battle valiantly for eight months.
