Marilyn my heartfelt condolences to you and your family.

It was an absolute joy to have been a very small part of both of your lives. The smile in this picture speaks volumes of what I experienced with my time with him.
He loved you and his family so much. He missed you when you left his side. The devotion to each other is remarkable.
May he watch down on all his family until you all meet again.
Rest easy Roy.
