Roy was a wonderful person & easy to talk with. He will be missed by his golf buddies the most as it seems that golfing was his favorite pastime.

May your hearts soon be filled with wonderful memories of joyful times together as you celebrate a life well lived. Lena Birdo-Atkins from Centralia,ILL. Org.
