Vernon Guy

WOODVILLE, Miss. – Mobile native Vernon Guy recently earned his GED at the Wilkinson County Correctional Facility (WCCF). Guy is the son of Carmen Guy and Vernon Dean, both of Mobile.
 
Guy said he is really excited about his achievement. “To be honest, Mr. [Branton] Lewis and Mrs. [Tracey] Arbuthnot had more confidence that I would pass than I did,” he said.
 
Branton Lewis, the Education Supervisor, said Guy was a good student. “Guy’s persistence paid off, and we are all proud of him.”
 
His instructor, LaKeisha Tolliver, said, “Guy is one of my most outstanding students, and he always motivates others to do well.” Tolliver went on to say that he has been a huge help in assisting other students.

Programs Director Tracey Arbuthnot said, “It is always good to see one of our men getting their GED. This is going to open a lot of doors for him in the future.”

When asked about his future plans, Guy said, “I plan to expand my education and help others prepare for their GED tests.”

WCCF is managed by Management & Training Corporation or MTC of Utah.
