Dr. Royce Laycock

A great man and mentor.

Royce was always gracious and handsome in my opinion. I remember how unassuming he was throughout his life and how “down to earth” he remained no matter which accolades Royce received in the medical community. Once, when we visited his mother in Shamrock, my great Aunt Lillie, he seemed so grateful that our family took time to visit and that I braided her long hair. He stayed in contact with our dad, his first cousin, until Dad’s death in 2002. Royce Laycock will be greatly missed on earth.

Uncle (or technically Great Uncle to me) Royce was always so entertaining at our Laycock Family Reunions for years. He could tell a story like few others could. He was also a huge help to my parents when my mom was first diagnosed with Kidney failure and he helped them find the right doctors to provide her with the best possible help. It is because of men like Uncle Royce that makes me proud to be a Laycock. He will definitely be missed greatly. Norma, we love you and are praying for...
