Roy was an amazing man and will always hold a special place in my heart. I had the privilege of doing an internship with Roy when I was in college in 1985. He was a mentor in so many ways, and taught me in a short period of time about business and compassion. He was loved by many and his legacy will live on... Lori Landeck

Dearest Jackie: We were shocked and saddened to read about Roy Powers passing. He was such a marvelous person who possessed a great personality. We loved him as a neighbor and longtime friend. His contribution to Nevada was more than noteworthy as a fine artist and a great contributor to society in so many ways. God bless him………………….we are sorry for your loss.

Recent memories of visiting Reno include the celebrations of life for our parents and examples of their creative endeavors. We were so happy to see both Roy and Jackie, along with many Reno friends, relive and enjoy our mementos of...

Dear Aunt Jackie and family -- Our hearts go out to you -- Uncle Roy was a very special person. I have so many wonderful memories -- So ironic that he passed two weeks after his only living sister. I sure hope Roy, Royale, Virginia and my mom are all up there looking down on us and enjoying being together again! Love you. Mario and Karen Aldana, Oceanside, CA
