We were so sorry to hear of your loss. Our thoughts are with you at this time of sorrow.

It was with much sadness that I learned of Roy's passing. He was such a larger than life personality that one was tempted to believe that he would always be there. This is really a great loss and my condolences go out to Betty, his children and family.

Our sincere condolences to Roy's immediate family.  We met Roy through my deceased Brother-In-Law (Ferdinand Charles) and Roy's kindest and laughter will always remain in our memory. So long Roy and may you find peace.  May your family be comforted.
