Roy was a true friend, and he loved the Just Jinger girls for who we are and inspired us to become more than we even thought we could be. When I first met Roy over the internet, he almost practically fired me, Roy you know I won't ever let you forget this, just because it makes me laugh, but he sincerly apoligized and has loved me as a friend ever since. He took us out to the nicest dinners I'd ever been to and was always their for us in hard times. He saw the true potential in us and helped us to see it in ourselves. I will truely miss him and my love goes out to his family.

Roy you were a special guy, always helpful, always willing to give time and advise. I will always remember the travels to China, seeing you at shows and sales meetings. Thanks for the pleasure of knowing you, your engaging smile and laugh.

Roy was such a gentlemen. He was also a very wise and caring man. He taught me a lot, not only about working in the craft industry but about life itself. He will be truly missed.
