Buy a Rob Guinn T-Shirt and help raise money

Proceeds go to education fund for daughter

Thanks to Greg Rajan for bringing this to our attention. Please consider ordering a memorial Rob Guinn T-shirt. As you remember, Rob passed away this summer as a result of a tragic car accident. The accident happened near Jefferson, Iowa when a driver ran a stop sign and hit Guinn’s car. Guinn, who is survived by his wife Brooke and five-month old daughter Olivia, was 32 years-old.

Guinn began his career with the WPHL’s Central Texas Stampede in 2000 and played 74 games in the CHL seeing action with New Mexico and Tulsa. During the 2006-07 season with the Scorpions, Guinn scored seven goals with 49 assists ranking sixth among all defensemen with 56 points. He was selected as a member of the CHL’s Southern Conference All-Star Team in 2007. Last season, Guinn played 10 games with the Tulsa Oilers. He returned to Illinois to be closer to his family and finished his career as a member of the Bloomington Prairie Thunder of the International Hockey League.

To place an order, you can call Brad Wallace at 260-483-7158 or e-mail him at bradswoodworking@yahoo.com. The proceeds go to the memorial fund set up for his daughter's future education. Pictured above is the front of the shirt. The back reads "Guinn 24" and they cost $20.

Also, don't forget Guinn's family set up the Rob Guinn Memorial Fund to support daughter Olivia's future education. Donations should be mailed to: The Leighton Legal Law Firm, 802 N. Clinton Street, Suite 1, Bloomington, IL 61701
