Dear Carol and family, Words are inadequate to express how sorry I am for your loss. Roy will be missed by all who knew and loved him, but none more than you. When Daddy passed away, Roy put dead bolts on every door in Mommas house and would not take a penny for the job. I will never forget his kindness and will be forever grateful to him. He was very special to the Bond family, as are you. My love and my prayers are with you. John 14:1-4
