Beloved Brother, Uncle, Friend, and Patriot.

With heavy hearts, we announce the passing of Roy Bedford on July 5th, 2025a kind, loyal man who deeply loved his family and country. A proud National Guard veteran who served alongside his brother Dan Brown, Roy's gentle spirit and quiet strength touched everyone he met.

He is now at peace, reunited with his beloved sisters Kathy and Belinda Bedford; fathers Clifton "Red" Brown and Roy Bedford Sr.; nephews Zachary Bobbitt and Dustin Bobbitt; and great-nephew Liam Stout.

Left to cherish his memory are his loving mother Kay Bedford; sisters Connie Allen (her husband James), Krista Brown, and Kim Bobbitt; brothers Casey Bedford and Dan Brown; and many nieces, nephews, great-nieces, and great-nephews.

Services will be held at New Covenant Church of God on July 11th. Family will receive friends at 5 p.m. with the service to follow at 6 p.m.

Roy's presence will be deeply missed.
