Not sure what to say?

Hi Daddy,
Even though you've been gone from me for a long time, I miss you very much. I have a picture of you young, fit, handsome and totally in love with your baby girl....me! I remember how close we were before....it's too bad we weren't able to stay that way. I have that picture in a special place with a candle lit forever my love for you. Watch over me now daddy...I love you, Cissie

I was deeply saddened to learn of Roy's death only after the memorial service had taken place. He was an astute business man who made money, and a generous soul who always shared it. I cannot ever remember paying for a meal when I dined with him or Tory, even when a group of us called THEM and invited them out. Even during the "after" time, I remember how he could always be kept from wandering off by just asking him, "Roy, could you please help me with this?" and he would be right there. ...

I remember Roy always smiling, following Tory around the plastic companies without complaint!!!Seeing your relationship and dedication to each other was a gift to all. God Bless.

My deepest sympathy to you, Tory and to your family. Gosh, we had so many great times. Peace be with you.

I'm happy that the suffering is over. We probably could write a best seller about the adventures of the four of us. My most memorable one was the resturant in Detroit. (and the little white lies we told)We did some fun things and also shared a lot of pain. I'm sure Brian is very happy having Roy with him. Probably already has him signed up for some senior bowling league. Best of luck to you Tory and know that we all know what you too went through. It's not easy watching someone you love...

We had so many great times full of fun and laughter and will cherish these fond memories for the rest of our lives.

Rest peacefully dear friend. We've been friends since 1942 and enjoyed many experiences togather, My sympathies to Tory.

Roy was the kindest man I have ever met, I loved him. He always had a smile on his face and never spoke a bad word against anyone. If everyone could be like Roy, this would be a wonderful world. My wife and I with our family will miss him.

Roy was the most cheerful happy person I have ever known. He was a friend to many and I count myself blessed to be counted as one of them. I'm sure that with his love of music, he is already playing his trumpet in God's band.
