Leighton J. "Bucky" Roy

I will remember and love you. You always blessed me in our Sunday School Class. We shared some great times. I will be praying for your family. Until we meet at Jesus feet, Sister Joy Wideman

The ladies of the Hueytown Library were shocked to here of the death of Mr. Roy. We will all miss his visits to our library. He was a fine addition to our community and a faithful patron.

I prayed for Bucky to survive this illness, but I know in my heart that when God turned to Bucky and said, "Come with me." that Bucky was delighted. His love for God was genuine and life fullfilling. He lived among us, but his life belonged to God.
Thank you God for the few like Bucky.

He was always so kind to me...when I was out of work this year he always asked me at church if I had heard anything yet from my interviews, and said he was praying for me a job. He helped me through a difficult time, knowing that he was so concerned. He was greeting me with a smile at the door of the church, washed dishes and helped cook in the kitchen at the church suppers, truly a servant's heart. I loved to hear his voice and see his smile! He was so in love with the Lord and was obedient....

Lindy, You continue to be in my thoughts and prayers. God Bless and keep you all close during the difficult days and months ahead...

I have been so blessed to have the privilege of knowing and belonging to the same family of faith with Bucky, he has added a joy to my life that only he could add. I am so thankful to have had the opportunity to serve and worship with him, I will always miss his kindness and giving personality.

I can't believe Bucky is gone! I am so saddened by this and my heart aches for you and Trish. He will be missed by many, especially his family. At this time of sorrow,
may these truths sustain you ...
Bucky will always be as close as a memory, and God will always be as
close as a prayer. May you find strength in the love of family and in the warm embrace of friends.

Such a Wonderful Giving and Spirit-Filled Man! Everything he did was done with His whole Heart(and a side of humor)... whether it was greeting people to make them feel welcome, taking up offerings or washing dishes... And just get him talking about the Goodness of God! Wow! Lonnie told me several times how he would call him over for a 10 minute odd job at the house and it would turn into hours of praising the Lord till both of them were crying like babies...He Loved it!
