Roy D McCleve, (91) beloved husband, father and grandfather passed away on November 27, 2024 at his home in Aztec, NM after a life filled with love and service to others.

He worked for years with the Gas Company of New Mexico, supporting his family to show them the love and care he had for them. Those family members include Janet Lee Peterson who preceded him in death. He was survived by his wife, Zelpha May Brown Zufelt who passed away on November 30, 2024. He is survived by his three children: Ferrell Ann Hornsby, Rebecca Grace Hulse, daughters, and Michael Roy McCleve, his son. And 15 grandchildren and 41 great-grandchildren. Many of Zelpha's children also think of him as a father and grandfather.
