My deepest sympathy to the Roy family with the loss of your mother and grandmother. I hadn't seen her in many years,not since her son Butch moved. I remember her as being a sweet and loving lady.

I have had the honor of taking care of Mrs. Roy for the last year at SHARC. She was an amazing woman; so sweet, caring, full of love and kind words for everyone she came in contact with. She had a subtle sense of humor that made me laugh every time I came into her room. She was so beautiful, inside and out, with her hair parted and her little flower hairbows always in place, and her flawless nails! She brought all of us, staff and residents, great joy. And though I am sorry for your loss, I am so grateful that she no longer has to suffer, and she now gets to rejoin her husband! Thank you all for bestowing upon us the opportunity to know such an angel! Our thoughts and prayers are with you all!
