Roy loved his family and his Roanoke community. With all he encountered, he always had a story to share or a listening ear. He was a dedicated husband, brother, father, and grandfather, putting the needs of others before his own. He loved connecting with his loved ones, whether in person over a cup of coffee or on the phone. Roy showered his family with great love and selflessness. But more than anything he loved spending time with his wife and they were seldom apart.

He captured many beautiful moments of his life with his camera, appreciating the beauty of nature and humanity from behind his lens. He was a lifelong and avid reader who loved learning new things in the books he read.

Roy will be greatly missed, but his generosity, perseverance, kindness, and love will live on in all who knew him. His family will miss him dearly.

He will be interred at Franklin Memorial Park in Rocky Mount, Virginia on April 25, 2025. In lieu of flowers, the family asks that contributions be made in his memory to either the Southwest Virginia Chapter of the American Red Cross of Virginia or the Friends of the Blue Ridge, Roanoke Valley Chapter , organizations that he ardently supported throughout his life.
