Roy Lee retired from Henrico County Parks and Recreation department where he drove a riding tractor for over 20 years. He was responsible for cutting the fields at the parks and around the schools.

Roy Lee loved going to the American Legion on Lakeside on Friday nights to go dancing. He would have the women lined up ready for a dance. Roy Lee also enjoyed collecting lead wheel weights and melting them down to make different kinds of fishing sinkers.
