He was a father figure to a host of nieces and nephews, other relatives and life-long friends, and his ex-daughter-in-law Nicole Fitch.

Roy Sr. was a proud oyster fisherman for more than 50 years. He was a hard worker in pursuit of the "American Dream", never forgetting his upbringing. He always enjoyed celebrating the holidays and Sundays with family and friends at his home. Most of all he loved his family and instilled in his children strong values that have served them well. He will be sorely missed by all. Mr. Fitch, age 88 years, was a native of Houma, LA and a long-time resident of Buras, LA and Marrero, LA.
