Gloria L. Guy

We say, “until we meet again” to Gloria Lily Quezada Jimenez de Guy, or more affectionately known as “Chichi.” Born and raised in Santa Cruz, Bolivia as one of 8 children, she was tough, she was sensitive, and she was fun.

She obtained her nursing degree in obstetrics and in 1968 met an American named John who was there with the Peace Corps. They chose to spend the rest of their lives together and returned to the US to settle in Indianapolis.

Mother to 4 children: Chico, Cindy, Alex and Laura, she gave and gave. Her other loves were traveling the world with John, tennis, anything with water, nature, and simple joys like a good cup of coffee and watching the birds and squirrels in her backyard. She was complex and she was human. She does not “leave behind” anyone because she continues to live in each of us. Mom, go swim, go hike, go laugh, go “be.” Until next time. (Written by Cindy Fall).

In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to the Alzheimer's Association ( https://www.alz.org/ ) or one of its affiliates are appreciated. Those who prefer to donate to St. Augustine Nursing Home, located at 2345 W. 86th St., Indianapolis, IN please visit, https://littlesistersofthepoorindianapolis.org/donate/ ). A Mass will be held at St. Luke's Catholic Church around 10:00 a.m. on July 18, followed by a reception at The Club House of North Willow Farms.

Chichi was a vibrant person who loved bright colors. To celebrate her we ask that you not wear all black to services and instead choose bright colors.

Obituario de Chichi Guy: Nos despedimos de Gloria Lily Quezada Jiménez de Guy, cariñosamente conocida como "Chichi". Nació y creció en Santa Cruz, Bolivia, en una familia numerosa de ocho hermanos. Era fuerte, sensible y divertida.

Se graduó en enfermería obstétrica y en 1968 conoció a John, un estadounidense que trabajaba con el Cuerpo de Paz. Decidieron pasar el resto de sus vidas juntos y regresaron a Estados Unidos para establecerse en Indianápolis.

Madre de cuatro hijos: Chico, Cindy, Alex y Laura, siempre dio lo mejor de sí misma. Entre sus pasiones se encontraban viajar por el mundo con John, el tenis, todo lo relacionado con el agua, la naturaleza y los pequeños placeres como una buena taza de café y observar a los pájaros y las ardillas en su jardín. Era compleja y humana. No deja huella, pues sigue viva en cada uno de nosotros. Mamá, ve a nadar, a caminar, a reír, a ser tú misma. Hasta la próxima. [Escrito por Cindy Fall]

Chichi era una persona vibrante que amaba los colores vivos. Para celebrarla, pedimos que no llevéis todo negro a los servicios y que elijáis colores vivos.
