Not sure what to say?

Roy it has been such a long time of your untimely passing. I will always cherish our friendship..You are always in my .

My deepest condolences to the entire Crite family. Roy was truly a special individual. The loss of such a man is a void that will never be filled, although I'll never understand his undying allegiance for the Democratic Party. Take solace in knowing that he was loved by many and that he now knows the pure love of God.

I just recently learned of his passing this past Sat....I too morn him.He was one *gem of a man,I am so very happy and so very fortunate to had have and call him *Friend. May the sorrow and greif of his passing be short-lived and the memories and good times of his life and living never fade. He was loved by many,including me....I will always miss but shall never forget him.

My prayers and thoughts are with the family, particularly with Roy's sons, during the time we spent together most of our conversations were about the love and concern he had for his family. I will always remember Roy for all the rough emotional times that he brought me through. I was consistantly amazed by his intelligence and wisdom. His love for his former sport of basketball was charming and predictable. The world has lost a wonderful, bright and very loving soul.

To Roy's wonderful family, I feel your pain, I know what you are going through. I also loved him. I Pray that you find comfort in knowing how much he was loved by many.God Bless you. I shall never forget this Beloved man. He touched my heart so completely. He has truly been a gift from God, in my life. I can still hear his wonderful voice, "Be Still My Heart" he will always be in my heart.

God bless you Roy "Quester"..your memories will live on. You will truly be missed..

I remember when we first met I thought that you were so tall and handsome for an older gentleman. Your conversations were always enlighting...You were truly a wealth of information...and willing to share all you know with whoever craved knowledge..Our journey was short..but I am sure you never knew the impact you had on my life...I don't belive you really understood what you meant to me as a friend..that is my only regret...But you are in a better place now...no more worrying, no more pain....

Perhaps Roy's greatest contribution was the love and support of his sons ... His family was his heart as he fondly spoke of gatherings with his sisters and brother.

His honesty, wit, intelligience and humility (when necessary) all flowed into what made him a unique individual. Missing you Big Guy ...

To the friends and family members of Roy...may god bless you and keep you in your time of grief. I could only imagine the feelings that arise..each time someone calls the house asking for Roy...and you have to be bearers of the unfortunate truth..informing the many friends Roy had across the country..of his passing. Roy was an amazing man..smart and very intelligent. He always talked about his boys...and his sisters..that he helped so much, and his tenants..he was so nice..I had the pleasure...
