    Dural was my employer when in high school. GUYTON'S SUPER SHELL. '68 thru '70. He taught me a lot about serving the public, auto service, truck tires, wreckers, etc., etc. He was a great boss, a great guy, and friend. Nothing but fond memories of Dural Guyton. God's best to all who love him.

    Your dad was awesome!!! He made me laugh with all of his jokes and wit. I'm so sorry that he passed away. His heart and life was his wife, his daughters, all of the grandchildren and son in laws...I will always remember him with love, kindness and his beautiful smile. And, always saying "not too much on my plate", when he ate. Rest in Paradise Dural.☮️ You will be missed and loved always. My condolences to the entire family and his friends. ❤
