To Roy's family,
I know that even though it has been a year, it seems like yesterday that our Dear Roy passed from this life. His name is still in my messenger, my address book and my heart. I will always remember his phone calls and emails, his jokes,laughter,support and encouragement. This guest book may close, but our memories never will.
God Bless,
