I just heard today. I'm really sad to hear this. Roy was a great friend and I enjoyed every minute I spent with him. We had alot of fun messing around with the RC stuff. Roy will be missed and will always have a place in my heart.

I did not know Roy personally but without men like him we would all still be riding around in wagons pulled by horses. RIP Roy............

I talked with him on the phone several years ago about the days he drove "Pop" Marner's old '31 Austin Bantam, which I now own. Great guy with some really great stories. God Bless.

Roy, was a great friend over the years. Remember him at the Scottsbluff Drag Strip in the late 50's. He was a great man in many ways far beyond racing. Our children sure enjoyed the his friendship and pranks over the years. Lu his wife has been a friend for over 60 years and they were a good example for all.
RIP
