My family and I are still shocked by the news of the passing of our friend and colleague. My husband grew up around him and I had the pleasure of meeting him and his wonderful family while I was serving alongside Roy and his sons during my time on Jackson Township Volunteer Fire Department. It still seems unreal but I can't say enough good things about Roy. He was such an amazing and funny guy. His loss is definitely felt among many and I will always remember him fondly. I'm going to miss his Facebook posts explaining his views and opinions on things because he was never wrong lol. My heart goes out to his family and the rest of the brothers and sisters that are mourning the great loss. Sending prayers to all during this most difficult time.
