I worked with Roy for 25 years.He was a good friend,what a tough guy,a caring person,and a very hard worker.He tought me a lot about life.He was the friend that got me to quit smoking cigarettes.I enjoyed going to the fights with him and the other buds from work.I really enjoyed listing to some of his stories he had while growing up, and when he was in the Army fighting for the freedom that we all can enjoy today.Roy you will be missed, I’ll see you one day on the other side Pal.
