I am saddened to learn about Roy´s passing. He was such a sweet man! He would regularly check in with me to inquire about my parents health and always ask if my sisters and I were doing ok. He will be greatly missed - may he rest in peace. My condolences to Judy, Susan, Randy, Andy and their families.
