Roy was one of the kindest, most thoughtful, gentleman you would ever meet. He always helped others with anything that he could, whether it was money or the shirt off his back. Roy is a born again Christian, so we are happy to know where he is.

Roy attended college at Auburn University for his undergraduate degree and the University of Alabama for his Doctorate of Dentistry. He specialized (and was at one time) the only Board Certified Prosthodontist in the Ark-La-Tex. He was in private practice in Geneva, AL from 1958 to 1964 when he joined the U.S.A.F. He retired from the U.S. Air force with 20 years of service as a Colonel while stationed at Barksdale AFB.
