Lima, OH Roy McIntosh, age 87, of Lima, Ohio, passed away peacefully at Lima Memorial Hospital at 1:32 a.m. on August 12, 2025. Roy was a family man, a loyal friend, and a hard worker who dedicated over two decades to the Ohio Mushroom Company. A lifelong fan of the Atlanta Braves, he rarely missed a game. His kind soul, steady presence, and love for life left a lasting impact on all who knew him.
He was born on May 20, 1938, in Perry County, Kentucky, to the late Perry and Maggie Hollon McIntosh. A devoted husband, he was preceded in death by his beloved wife, Lula Mae McIntosh, and by his brothers Charlie, John, Floyd, and James McIntosh.
He is lovingly remembered by his siblings, Elizabeth McDonald and Dora Turner; his children, Raymond McIntosh, Donnie McIntosh, and Nancy Gross; and his granddaughter Lisa Moyer, whom he proudly and lovingly raised as his own, along with eight other cherished grandchildren. He also leaves behind great-grandchildren Courtney Brion, Gabriel Brion, Andrew Thompson, and sixteen others; as well as great-great-grandchildren Ann, Steven and Charles Moyer. Along with a myriad of others who cared for him deeply.
His presence, love, wisdom, and witty nature will be deeply missed but forever remembered. Though he is no longer with us, his spirit and love will live on in the hearts of his family for generations to come.
