Mr. Yetter rest in HIS arms Sir.  It was my distinct pleasure to be included in the Howard Safe and Lock family.  You built an institution of Security and a business that is and always have been the "Fore Runners" in Locksmithing. Your legacy will live on Sir.

I couldn't help but to feel sadden to hear the news that Roy had passed, yet happy that he is now at peace. Roy was the owner of our business and property that we own now. Although we did not know Roy Yetter for a long time, the time we did know him was truly a blessing to myself, my husband, and our family. I learned VERY quickly Roy was a man of the highest integrity and a MAN OF HIS WORD. He worked hard when he owned his business and was truly an expert of his trade. We are truly grateful to him for his blessing on taking over his business that he worked so hard to build for years. I hope that with G-d's help we can continue to thrive and grow this business in Roy's memory. Roy was so much more than just a man we bought a business and property from, but a man that took a chance on us, a young couple, trying to get started in life and to build something lasting for our family. When my husband approached Roy with our offer he could of laughed at us and sold his property for much more than what we had to offer, but he didn't. I remember after Roy and my husband agreed on a price, Roy's agent told him he could sell for much more, but Roy's response was.. "I already gave my word on price and I am not changing it." He could of taken advantage of us and he didn't. Roy gave us an amazing opportunity as a young couple trying to build something for our family and for that we are forever grateful. He not only gave us this opportunity, but also came by the shop on a regular basis to help us around the shop, offer advice, and drum up new business, while calling old customer's and telling them to come back. He was a great mentor to us, and we miss him dearly. 

With love always, the Vidal's

Janice, I regret to hear of Roy's passing.  It brings back memories from Rittenhouse Church.  Would you extend my sympathy to Roy's siblings.  May God give comfort to you.  My prayers are with you all.  Myrtle Wilson, Madisonville, TX.

Roy will be missed by many.  He was a great guy and a wonderful person.  I had the privilege of knowing him for thirty years. He was well respected in the Locksmith Industry and was very knowledgeable about all phases of locksmithing. He was like a big brother to me in many ways.  I know I will miss him greatly.  I already do.  Janice, Elizabeth and I love you and will be praying for you and the kids.

Karen,
My sincere condolences to you and your family on the passing of your brother, Roy. Although, he will no longer be with you physically, all the wonderful memories you have can never be taken from you, always cherish them.  Love, Marylou

We will miss Mr. Roy Yetter at our (GHLA) Greater Houston Locksmiths associations meetings. He was #23 on our list of 721 locksmiths that join our association. He will be very missed in the Locksmiths World. Prayers to the Family. Barbaraa Siems - Secretary of GHLA

We're going to miss you big guy. Save me a seat at the poker table. Love to you always.

Roy was a good friend and was well known and respected in the Locksmith Industry and at the Houston Rodeo. He always met you with that great big smile.
