Roy was a dear friend in Bishop during the 1970s and 1980s! He helped Inyo Mono Advocates for Community Action (IMACA) develop its self-help housing programs and started the Lancers Youth Group. On a personal level he initiated me into E. Clampus Vitus. I also recall having discussions with Roy when the San Manuel Tribe was being approached by gaming interests to develop their casino in Highland. The negotiations were very important for the Tribe and its members. The casino, now named Yamava', was another bit of good fortune for Roy and his family. He was truly a family man who raised his children well and was constantly sharing life, love, and business with his beautiful and talented wife Beulah. Memories of Roy are a rich part of my life and I am deeply thankful to him for our friendship.

I just found out today [2-15-23] that Brother Roy Has gone home to be with the Lord, a little over two years from today!

I was looking for a CD of his on Discogs; and his profile had the dates of his life, ending on February 2021. Shocked me, as I have enjoyed his CD's/DVD's and watching him on SBN. He was such a blessing- the way he told his stories and played his saxophone. What a gifted and talented Godly man.

He will be missed, and for those of you on this site asking where you can find his music; you can find it on Amazon, eBay, Discogs, etc. and also watch his videos on YouTube. I just ordered another one of his CD's, "To Be Used Of God", with him and Jimmy Swaggart, from eBay. I know it will be a special blessing when I receive and listen to this CD of his.

My deepest condolences go out to his wife, Beulah, and the rest of his family and friends. I pray that God covers you with His abundant Peace and Love. I am sure Roy is playing his saxophone in heaven, worshiping our Lord and Savior! Blessings to all.

I was just listening to his music and was searching to see what he was doing these days, what a shock! I never met him, but I loved his stories and loved his music. He seemed to be a great man and Brother in Christ!

I just found out today that we lost a dear brother- Roy Chacon. Thankful to God that I was able to meet him at a gospel crusade at our church. He was a very down to earth and godly man. He ministered to my dad and called him on occasion. I know my dad was happy to see him when he entered Eternity. Praying for all the family. Thank you for sharing him with us.

Beulah,
Sending prayers. I wish Roy could have known that my daughter, Charlene, who he counciled, celebrated 10 years clean in January.

My heartfelt condolences to Beulah and family.
Roy and I were friends in High School. We played in the Marching Band and Dance Band together. I have many fond memories of hanging out at his house watching his Dad and friends have a Jam Session.
Although its been many many years since I've seen him I will always remember him as a good friend growing up. He was one of the good guys.
