Dearest Family of Roy,
We join with so many others who knew Roy, in offering our deepest sympathy on his passing.
The measure of a life well-lived is not in how much money one has or what possessions they have accumulated, but rather through the lives they touched and the sorrow they leave behind. You can proudly and confidently say that his indeed was a life well-lived.
Let the comfort of God help you during this difficult time. Please know our loving thoughts embrace you.
Love, Greg & Sharon; Kim & John and Paul
