Not sure what to say?

Well I wrote a nice long message and talked about the Falls and CCDrakes getting together for Thanksgiving. Next I covered the scary basket ride over the Truckee River near the house. I finally came clean on my assertion that Roy almost got stepped on by an Elephant at the Nugget. But even if my little stories are a bit of false memories, I know for sure I loved and admired him. He had a wonderful sense of humor and combined with his smile, he was real easy to like. I will miss him even...

My wife and I were so saddened to hear about Roy. I worked with Roy at Landa Electric when I was a first year electrical apprentice. He was a great electrician, a great friend, and my best man at my wedding in 1973. He will certainly be missed by his friends, and wonderful wife Carol and their sons.
