Guy Shulhan

The world became a little less bright with the passing of Guy Shulhan on September 6, 2025, in Calgary, Alberta. Born on August 22, 1948, in St. Paul, Alberta, Guy lived a life filled with curiosity, humour, hard work, and a passion for wildlife and the outdoors.

Guy loved birding, hiking, and capturing the beauty of the world through his photography. His talent behind the camera earned him several awards, and his photos will continue to inspire those who see them. Guy was also an avid scuba diver in earlier years, exploring the Red Sea with wonder and an untiring sense of adventure. He was a lover of art, particularly Inuit sculpture, and enjoyed sharing his artistic knowledge with those who wanted to learn.

A unique mind, he had a talent for problem-solving and was constantly learning new things. His enthusiasm was infectious, and he never failed to bring laughter to those around him with his quirky sense of humour.

Guy is lovingly remembered by his wife of nearly 47 years, Margie, his sister Suzie, sister Donna, brother-in-law Hal, son Michael, daughter Stephanie, son-in-law Min, and many nieces, nephews, cousins, and friends. He is deeply missed, and he will live on in the hearts of all who knew and loved him.

Guy was diagnosed with late-stage cancer in May 2025, and he died peacefully in hospice after radiation treatment. 

No formal service will be held, per Guy's wishes. For those who wish to celebrate his memory, the family kindly recommends that charitable donations to honour Guy be made to:
