From what I have seen of Albert Music Hall, great people must be behind it. Roy was certainly a great man.

It always gave me great pleasure to see the happiness on Roy's face when he took time to sit and listen to the musicians on stage. We send applause and thanks for the hours of work he and Elaine have given to Albert Hall. Treasure your memories of a wonderful man.
