Roy was married to James E Meko, they shared a wonderful 30+-year union. They created and ran a successful printing and design company in the neighborhood, The Best Impression, they adored in the SOMA area. As a local print shop, they were able to run flyers for the Ambush and the Arena without it catching the public eye. Their support of the leather community can be seen on Ringold Ally as a memorial of Jim's boot print.
Both men have been and will continue to be pillars in the SOMA leather community.
Roy enjoyed Budweiser and San Francisco afternoons. You would often find him holding court at one of the many establishments that made up the leather scene.
A service will be held on April 30th at 3pm. Location will be the PowerHouse, 1347 Folsom st.
