Stephen Guernsey, 58, of Nederland, passed away Sunday, September 24, 2017. He was born on April 1, 1959, in Port Arthur, to Louise Ann Putorti Guernsey and Louis Dayton Guernsey.

Stephen was a vibrant presence among friends with his sense of humor and ability to tell a great story. He was a kind, patient and thoughtful man who was appreciated by many.
