The poet Edgar A. Guest was known for publishing his accessible, sentimental poems in newspapers and was one of the most popular poets of the World War I and Great Depression eras of US history. Guest died in his sleep on August 5, 1959, at the age of seventy-seven. The Prescott Evening Courier reported in its obituary that, though the cause of death was not immediately apparent, it was eventually determined by physicians to have been a cerebral hemorrhage. A cerebral hemorrhage, also known as a brain hemorrhage, is caused by internal bleeding following an artery bursting in the brain, and is classified as a type of stroke.
Guest is buried in Woodlawn Cemetery in Detroit, Michigan, where he lived.
