Not sure what to say?

Dear Family of Roy,
I think about Roy often. And it is important for me to share that he was not only my best friend when we were neighbors but an amazing and great friend. We had such fun growing up from long Monolpoly games to marbles to baseball to football to climbing trees, playing dodgeball for hours in The Robertsons driveway to caring for rabbits to riding horses., building forts, walking to Leaksville Graded together.....The list goes on and on. Patrick Street was a fantastic...

Roy,
You are never forgotten.
Love,
Brenda

Roy was a little brother to me when Brenda and I first married. The world is warmer for his having walked this earth but colder for his passing. I will miss him for as long as I live.
