Please know you are in our thoughts & prayers at this time. I so enjoyed Uncle Roy's stories & sense of humor. I have wonderful memories of staying with your parents when I was there for my son's graduation & Bess let me know it was Roy who always got the bed ready for me when I'd come in late. I loved his licensed golf cart. If there are golf courses in Heaven -- that's where you'll find him.
