Bowling with Roy and Skeeter has been such an inspiration to me in their loving and kindly manner toward each other as well as to everyone they meet.

It was Uncle Roy that taught me to "fish". Little did I suspect that when I turned my back, he placed a fish upon the hook! Though it looked a wee dried, I was the proud fisherman that day! What a kind and loving man; always a smile, a supportive word-- and interesting story in tow! Blessings to my Auntie Skeeter and cousins Sandy, John and families.

Vivian and I know this world is just a little less bright and warm without Roy. We feel so lucky to say we knew Roy. He always had a big beaming smile and a firm handshake. He made everyone around him feel positive and want to enjoy his company. For a man ninety years he could still bowl up a storm and play a tough game of pinnocle. We will always remember his weekly request in the restaurant at Holiday Lanes; "please bring me some hot sauce when you get a chance." 

The Golden Years bowlers will truly miss him next season and forever.

Vivian and Greg Miller
