  1. Dear GraceTalked to Betty last night and found out that Roy passed away. May you feel our Heavenly Father’s arms wrapped around you and comforting you, as only He can do. Praying for peace and trust for you and your loved ones. Love, ‘Fairway Evelyn’

  2. Roy was a character and his character could stand up under the sharpest scrutiny.
    While he could be abrasive I always knew he had the best intentions…..and I tried to make it clear to those who doubted Roy’s intentions.

    I believed in Roy. He volunteered for a lot of projects and always accomplished those projects well.

    I will miss Roy and his sense of humor.
