Dr. Roy's family; so sorry for your loss, my mother Hilda, worked with Dr. Roy and Dr. Tappen for many years. Dr. Roy recently called my Mom and told her about the surgery he was going to have. He was a wonderful doctor and delivered one of mt children, you should feel proud that he accomplished so much in his lifetime.

Bill Roy was a wonderful friend and a national and community leader of rare excellence. He was a mentor to me as I followed him in Congress and sought to further advance his leadership in improving both access and quality of health care for all Americans. I send my thoughts and love to all members of his family. We will all treasure and remember wonderful times we shared with him. Martha Keys

I knew Dr. Roy. In 1969 he welcomed a German high school student named Kai. It was through an international high school service. I remember going over to the Dairy Queen and eating ice cream with him. He invited me into his house when I was only 16. I met Risa, Robin, Bill Jr. and others. He was a very nice man. The most important thing to remember about him from my point of view is that he helped me through very difficult times at a young age and helped me at KU.
