Roy always had a big smile on his face and I came to expect it whenever I saw him on campus. The last reunion I went to ( a long time ago) his twin sister Robin said he could not make it that time but would the following reunion. It was either that night or that week that he died.

I'm so sorry to hear of Roy's passing. I knew Roy and Robin and remember them as being very nice people.

I first met Roy, when we shared the same home room at Ridgeview our 7th grade year. He was the first napa kid that I got to know. I just remember him as being very outgoing and funny. Easy to me around. So sad to hear of his passing.

I certainly remember Roy (and his sister Robin) from Ridgeview. I was stunned to learn that he'd passed so long ago. I remember them both as extremely nice & fun people and am truly sorry that he's gone. I hope Robin is well and has been living a full and happy life.
