I was a typing student in Mr. Royster's typing class at Huntington High School. It was as a result of the skills he taught and confidence have inspired I was able to obtain my first job following graduation in Washington, DC for the U.S. Government. He was truly a mentor and a reason for many of my successes. My condolence to his family.

Like so many of his former students, he was a teacher that I greatly admired and his mentoring and dedication were instrumental in my education and future career choices. His thoughtful guidance, generosity, and kindness improved the lives of many, many students and that legacy is perpetuated in the success we have experienced.
