Mr. Henry Guions, Jr., age 91, peacefully transitioned from this life on August 8, 2025, in Irvington, New Jersey.

​

Born and raised in Elizabethtown, Henry later made his home in Irvington, yet never lost touch with his North Carolina roots. He was a man of quiet strength, wisdom, and deep love for his family. His presence brought comfort and joy to all who knew him, and his legacy of humility, kindness, and integrity will remain etched in the hearts of those he touched.

​

Henry leaves behind a lifetime of cherished memories with his devoted children: one daughter, Shelia Guions, and one son, Gary Guions. He is also survived by his loving brother, Mr. John Bennett Guions (Sandra), as well as extended family and friends who will continue to celebrate his life and the impact he made.

​

A Celebration of Life will be held on Saturday, August 16, 2025, at 12:00 noon at Browns Creek AME Zion Church, 394 Browns Creek Church Road, Elizabethtown, North Carolina 28337. A public viewing will be held prior to the service, from 11:00 A.M. to 11:55 A.M. at the church.

​

Following the service, interment will take place at Browns Creek AME Zion Church Cemetery, Elizabethtown, North Carolina.

​

The family will receive friends and loved ones each evening from 4:00 P.M. to 7:00 P.M. at the home of Mr. and Mrs. J.B. Guions, 1813 Vine Street, Elizabethtown, North Carolina 28337.

​

Though Henry has departed this earthly life, his legacy lives on in the hearts of those who loved him. We find comfort in knowing that he is now at rest in the presence of the Lord.
