Coach Mendenhall was omnipresent at Cary High sporting events over the decades, and no one, and I mean no one, loved Cary High more than Guy Mendenhall. His blood truly bleeds Kelly Green. Please keep him and his family in your thoughts and prayers during this difficult time. 2/x

Let me circle back to this news: Guy is the epitome of what Cary High tradition is about: his affable demeanor, his unwavering and steadfast support, and his unmistakable hometown pride. x.com/ImpDomeHoops/s…

When I try to describe to someone what sets Cary apart in an area where there's a new high school every 5-6 years, I'm basically describing Guy because people like him are what make CHS so special. I know the gym is named after Charlie Adams, but Guy was Mr. Cary to me.

He kind of took me under his wing when I was starting out as The Cary News sports editor and tried to get me caught up on my Cary history. I learned so much history from him, and *no one* was quicker to let me know CHS wasn't getting enough coverage lol

The best sports editor The Cary News ever had, Stu Hall, wrote this in May for Cary Magazine about Guy. It sums him up well. carymagazine.com/features/mr-ca…

One of the reasons that I loved my years of coaching at Cary HS is the amount of quality people that were there. Take the time to listen to Coach Gus talk about Mr Cary High Guy Mendenhall and you'll understand even more! Well done Coach Gus
