Dear Family,
My love and thoughts are with each of you during this time. I'm sure the closeness that your family shares will help to get each of you through the rough days ahead. Always stay close to one another, and never take each other for granted. Much love to all of the family, especially to my dearest friend Sandy.

I was very sorry to hear of Roy's passing. I was hoping that one day we all could get together for a reunion. There never seems to be enough time to be with our loved ones. I know that Roy will be missed greatly by all those who knew and loved him dearly. Kim G. Price and family.

I shall continue to lift my hands in prayers for our family. I know Roy will be greatly missed by each one of us in so many different ways. However, his love and the many ways that his life touched ours shall continue on in our hearts. He is a wonderful Father, GrandFather, Brother/Brother-In-Law, Uncle, Friend and so much more. May God's Grace be with each of us in the days to come as I know it will.
